These little birds are sanderlings. A book nicknames them "wave chasers." I took these pictures yesterday, and yes, I did crop them. If I actually approached that close, they'd rise en masse and zoom away ... the way they're doing in the photo "Lovers," which I posted a couple weeks ago.

Daffydown Ditty
This picture inspired this silly-dilly verse:
Daffy tried to turn and hide
Her petticoat as I walked by.
But Mr. Sun, low in the sky,
Saw right through her, and so did I!
