Global Shorebird Counts - Day 7

September 7th, Global Shorebird Counts Day 7

I had an anticlimactic conclusion to the  2021 Global Shorebird Counts after I was unable to do any birding on day seven.  So after visiting five locations, two of them twice, taking eight counts, I saw sixteen shorebird species totaling 661 birds thus ending another year of the Global Shorebird Counts and World Shorebirds Day. Here are the name and images of the birds I saw.

White-rumped Sandpiper (Calidris fuscicollis)
Pectoral Sandpiper (Calidris melanotos)
Semipalmated Sandpiper (Calidris pusilla)
