An American Golden-Plover in Anne Arundel Co., Maryland (9/6/2007). Its fresh, finely patterned plumage indicates that this individual is a juvenile bird. The four primaries visible beyond its tertials (rather than three), back color, and leg length all rule out Pacific Golden-Plover. Photo by Bill Hubick.
