Subject: [Leica] BOATING PAD #7 - Correction, They're Ruddy Turnstones!

Doug Herr e-mailed me off-list this morning to tell me that the small  
birds in this photo are not Piping Plovers, but Ruddy Turnstones.

These little guys are either on their way south from way northern  
Canada or have settled in for the winter in the relatively warm clime  
of the Cape.*  Either way, they are impressive migrators.
