Haunting the outer beaches
as most migrants in the interior
short thick bills in winter
mournful whistle
dropping in the middle
long distance slimmer
wing tips rich whistle
golden-plover
snowy, piping
Killdeer
broken wing
flopping
mostly orange
white collar
field mark
obvious
underparts
mobbed
dark-tipped
whistle
clear, "wheeep"
wave-washed
rocks
harsh sharp
foreparts
hard, "kwip"
stout bill
over winter
teetering
bobbing
uncommonly
solitary
barred
underparts
muddy pond
bush top
stodgy
bulky body
marbled flocks
of godwits
fairly common
on one spot
whistles
of wandering
on and on
whinnying
trilling
early
in winter
darkening
still...
