Late in the afternoon on August 9, 2012, we were driving to our hotel in Swakopmund after birding in the Walvis Bay/Kuiseb Delta area. We made one last birding stop at a wetlands area where we photographed this Three-banded Plover (Charadrius tricollaris) in flight. Its red bill is tipped in black. The eye-ring is red, and underparts are white. Two black bands circle the neck on either side of a white band. The face, throat, and neck are a grayish color. Temperatures were in the upper 70's on this clear afternoon.
