A ruddy turnstone (Arenaria interpres) on a rock in the water at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge in late May. As the name implies, they hunt by turning over small stones on the shore. Their non-breeding territory are coastal areas all over the world, and they breed along the coast in the arctic.

A ruddy turnstone (Arenaria interpres) in non-breeding plumage at Rockaway Beach. As it is a very sandy beach we did not get to see any of the characteristic stone turning behavior.
