If you only go to the beach in the summer, you are missing out!

Sanderlings are found on sandy beaches, like the ones in Duck, from fall through the spring. We love to watch them scurry in and out with the waves.

You can learn more about Sanderlings on the Cornell Labs All About Birds website.

Sanderlings are not to be confused with the taller Willet (shown in photo) that can be spotted year round. Learn more about Willets.
