The dunlin’s bright reddish back and black belly separates this common sandpiper from other shorebirds. They are gregarious birds and are often seen in large flocks on coastal mudflats.  They are commonly seen on Florida beaches, poking and probing the sand for insects, crustaceans and marine worms.
