Hi Linda! I just learned that "palmated" for a bird means webbed feet. Semi-palmated would mean partially webbed. Cool huh? So is your image! Lovely bird and catch! Your beautiful image has been featured by Wild Birds Of The World, a nature photography group. L/F

That's awesome, William, I just learned it myself a year or so ago the same way - once I learned the name of this plover! I tried to choose a photo where you can see the tiny bit of webbing. Thank you so much for the kind comment and for the feature!
