Quite the world traveler

This is a Semipalmated Plover. In winter, semipalmated plovers migrate to coastal areas. Along the Pacific Coast, they are found from Oregon through Baja, Mexico, Central America and as far south as Peru. Along the Atlantic Coast, they winter as far north as Maryland and extend south to Argentina, including on suitable shorelines throughout the Caribbean.

I am simply amazed at how these birds find their way to their winter quarters and back, and how they have the stamina to do so.
