Several people have appropriately pointed out that the sandpiper in my Huntley Meadows photos was a Least, not a Semipalmated.

I've been birding long enough to know to check leg color. Not sure why I didn't on this bird. And I was worried about my Yellowlegs ID...

Thanks to those of you who let me know.

I renamed the photo.  Here's a link to the correctly named one.
