Waiting for ebb tide
Along the south edge of Arrowhead Marsh, a low pier extends about 100 feet out from the shoreline.
During extreme high winter tides, Clappers, Virginias and Soras converge on the pier-- in spite of
its being peopled with birders. Some rails hide beneath it, but most simply hunker down near it, as
this bird has done.
