Shedding Tears For Shorebirds

10,000 Birds

Spew at sparrows. Are you in Alaska? Photographed at Des Lacs National Wildlife Refuge, ND. The second-to-last North American bird to have its nest discovered, they split their time between a tiny chunk of Alaska and a smattering of Pacific Islands. They are fearful of flycatchers. Galled at gulls. They wince at warblers.
