Sanderling

(calidris alba)
The Sanderling is a small and pretty wader. It breeds in the high arctic and winters in large numbers in Scotland. It is almost entirely coastal favouring sandy beaches and mudflats. It feeds with a distinctive dashing running action keeping just ahead of a rolling wave.
