Caption: Spotted Sandpiper foraging in cattle tank
Scientific name: Actitis macularia
Location: South Texas
Copyright: © Cliff Beittel
Photographer Code: B-SPSA-97
AGPix ID: AGPix_ClBe12_0291
Photo Alignment: 35mm (horizontal)
Comments: Breeds further south than most sandpipers (which tend to be arctic nesters), thus one of the best known shorebirds in the U.S. Famous for its tail-bobbing, teetering gait. Only in breeding plumage does it show a spotted breast. Images showing nesting birds and winter plumage also available.
