It's like #snowyplover on the #beach, not weird, just f***ing cute-iful. Hundreds of these little guys along the #ventura #california coastline in areas where their habitats are #protected from trampling. They nest directly on the sand, making their nests very susceptible to human activity. Definitely one of the most adorable beach birds around these parts.

Aha!

Let's try an experiment. Here's a full-sized #birdphotography image of a #snowyplover hosted on my own website.

If I just include the link, it doesn't seem to bring up a thumbnail automatically. Is there a way to force that?

Otherwise I have to post a thumbnail and then you have to click the link below separately to zoom. This one should be at full 8256 x 5504 resolution.
