Often found in large flocks, dunlin is a small grey colored bird. Can be seen around shorelines in Northern part of America.
Its head and breast are light-colored, and its back is bright reddish-brown.
Dunlin is one of the hardiest of shorebirds, wintering relatively far north. Its migratory behavior is quiet unusual, they wait until late in the season to return from the Arctic, with the earliest arriving in the late September and most coming down in October.

About the Author
Manoj Balotia
Originally from the land of spices, India; currently settled in the land of opportunities, America. I grew up in a family where the resources were scarce but love & care was in abundance. At the age of 10 I got my father's film camera, one of the greatest inheritance, I would call. I still have it and I feel like his soul is still with me in form of his camera.
During childhood I developed an inclination towards various art forms including pencil sketching, clay models, poetry, and making paper crafts. No matter what art form I get myself involved into, my work tends to focus on subjects that are pleasing to my heart and my mind.
In short I am-
“An art lover with a big camera backpack and a huge tripod on shoulders; traveling like nomads, quenching thirst of the camera’s eyes”
That’s Me :-)
