I saw this peep amongst a group of black bellied plovers. I figure it is a dunlin but i rarely see solo dunlin. thanks

Hi this is indeed a Dunlin. I wonder if it is injured, as it doesn't appear to be bathing. You can see lone Dunlin but the way he is just floating there doesn't strike me as a good sign.

The dunlin was on a rocky beach with some plovers ,one greater yellowlegs,and a few turnstones.They were just in the lea of the wind which was blowing a gale yesterday. They were hunkered down so i gave them space and made sure i did not flush them. Here is one more of the little guy,hope he was ok.
