Taking a Stroll in the surf zone, think it is a snowy plover, but any help in Identification would be appreciated. South Florida

I think that this is a sanderling, Roger. Snowy Plovers do not have black legs and have a distinctive black mark on the forehead.
Thanks Doug, I was looking at those and the beak looked more like it in the drawings what was throwing me off was the black banding on the body.

Awesome work Roger. I love the timing on this, even though it's a still image, the capturing it mid stride gives the image a feel of motion.
