This is a cute bird

It is looking for snails

To eat

Or maybe small fish

It is definitely a hunter

Even though it is itty bitty

This is a different itty bitty bird

That is also hopping along the shore

Hunting snails

And small fish

There may be more than two kinds of bird in this post

Kerri is way too busy to check
And if she looked it up and told you this was a black beaked brown butted sandpiper
You wouldn’t know what that was
And we’d have to tell you
It’s a small bird that hops along the shore
Eating snails and small fish.
