Dunlins searching for food. I think they would have preferred a lower level of water but the tide was just starting to come in.

Sleeping birds.

These little sleeping birds are dunlins (Calidris alpina). Notice how all of the birds on the outer fringes on the group have their beak tucked under the wing facing away from center. I read about this behavior with another bird species. It's a defensive measure. Many bird species can keep part of their brain awake and keep on

"Shorebird hybrids are very rare, but careful observation by birders have turned up hybrids between Dunlin and at least two other arctic-nesting species: White-rumped Sandpiper and Purple Sandpiper." - allaboutbirds.org
