Spotted Sandpiper - young baby July 10, 2013

On my way to Markham hospital for some tests I was so lucky to see a pair of Spotted Sandpiper babies. They were very close to the edge of the water on the lily pads. They are tiny little things. I could hear the adult calling from the edge of the pond. Look really closely at the tail and feathers around the face. Sweet. I must get up more often and be out at the pond by 7:30am. A lucky spotting of a baby bird I have never seen before. Lots of adults but never young.
