Sanderlings and Turnstones at Salton Sea, California

On a visit to Salton Sea, Imperial County, California, May 17, 1930, Sanderlings (Crocethia alba) were found to be fairly common on sandy beaches; one specimen was taken. On some small rocky islets in the sea, one Black Turnstone (Arenaria melanocephala) and four or five Ruddy Turnstones (Arenaria interpres morinella) were seen.
