Don't drive on the beach. This is a piping plover (endangered) hanging out in a tire track.

These are small birds that shelter from the wind in any cavity in the beach. They aren't the only ones that do this.

One of the things that we noticed about the piping plovers on a May trip to the beach was that they they like to hang out in footprints and other indentations in the sand. This one is hanging out in a footprint.

I think this is a male known as 'Clark Kent', mostly b/c he's got red and blue leg bands.
