*at present 20 commenters believe this to be a bird in the snow. It is not! The temperture was well in the 80s the day this was taken. Jersey beaches have very soft, white, fine sand. In fact, it is called "sugar sand".

At first I was like: "What??? Snow??"
but then I saw the error of my ways - it was sand. Nicely done!
Have a good weekend! Cheers, Klaus
Klaus ~ too funny! We have what's called "sugar sand", it is very white, soft, and fine.

Thats my type of sandy beach.
Brilliant. Birds in action can be so hard.

Ah, I'm glad I read the other comments to explain that I was looking at a cute little bird with a SAND background, not snow! Lovely! :)
What a pretty scene! I miss the beach.
LOL It doesn't look like snow to me, but then maybe I've just seen enough of your other pictures in the white sand to recognize it. Great shots! :-)
What a sweet bird, I have seen the sand in New Jersey and yes it does look like snow.
oh my what gorgeous photos ... so lovely :)
Sugar sand, I like it! You probably could pass it off as snow. I bet he serenaded you beautifully. :)
I must confess I thought it was snow as well and felt sorry for the little bird. It is really enjoying a day at the beach and much happier than we are here in the rain!
