Wilson's Plover at at San Carlos Bay: Bunche Beach Preserve
Fort Myers, Florida USA

The behavior of this plover when it finds a crustacean is to make a smaller
meal of it by shaking it apart. I'm overcoming the unnerving experience of crawling
around with the water inhabitants rarely seen though often felt.
