This is one of my all-time favorite images of this striking species as it roams the shoreline in search of crustaceans as the waves recede back into the Atlantic. The setting sun and clear blue skies provided warm yet subtle lighting on this high contrast bird. When I was first informed that this photograph was being considered for the cover, I was taken back with gratitude. Thanks to the staff at Virginia Wildlife Magazine, part of the state’s Department of Wildlife Resources, for their renewed efforts to continue to publish images captured by so many of the highly talented and dedicated nature photographers here in the Commonwealth. This is truly one of the most colorful and vibrant covers in years. Congratulations to the Editor, Art Director and the rest of the staff on such a beautiful issue. This photo precedes an amazing article on our struggling shorebirds. Blessed again! SEE: PUBLISHINGS
