Hampton on Labor Day

We spent the weekend with a friend who lives in Hampton, New Hampshire. This was the sunrise over the ocean on Labor Day morning.A short time later, I took a walk along the beach and found these Semipalmated Sandpipers and Semipalmated Plovers were also out for a walk.The sandpipers were the hardest to get photos of in the early morning light -- they are very fast as they skitter across the wet sand, not even pausing very long when they find something.


The plovers were just as fast, but for some reason I had a little more luck with them.
