Lapland Longspur on the Rocks - Tsawwassen, BC          Every year several of these Arctic summer residents make the stop on the Tsawwassen Ferry Jetty on their way to southern climates. The transformation of these birds from breeding colors to this mottled tan, black and white is to protect them in their wintering grounds. During the summer they are much more striking. Here is a Male Lapland Longspur in Nome, AK as photographed from a friend on Flicker.               Michael W Klotz 2019 - www.TheBirdBlogger.com
