218 Days until the US Open at Chambers Bay

I have been walking Chambers Creek Properties for years. I have been carrying a camera since 2009. With the US Open coming to the Chambers Bay Golf Course, which is part of the property, I have decided to share a picture each day for the 365 days leading up to the tournament. The US Open is scheduled to begin on June 18, 2015. As of today, we are 218 days away.

For shorebirds, Killdeer (Charadrius vociferus) are quite cooperative. They don't run around as much as sandpipers, they frequently tell you where they are hiding, and even their flight patterns are fairly easy to follow. Let's go with a simple picture today. This one was just standing around.
