Peru
American Oystercatcher
Haematopus palliatus
(L 17.5" WS 32" Wt 1.4 lb)
Coast S of Pucusana
13May09
Also along Eastern US coast
where numbers are decreasing
due to habitat loss..
I‘m convinced that there is
something about the sort of
conscious necessary for birding
that is very much like the
practice of faith.
