Black Turnstone (Arenaria melanocephala) - 29Sep2014

Somehow I only have one old photo of a Black Turnstone from San Diego when I first started birding.  There are only two species of Arenaria (turnstones) with Ruddy Turnstone being the other.  Black Turnstones stick to the west coast with all breeding happening in Alaska.  I hope to reacquaint myself with this species soon.
