Oystercatcher [Haematopus ostralegus]

Taken by Severn Beach
It was a little too far away. Moan moan moan moan.

  1. El ostrero buscando su alimento entre el barro y el limo. No está demasiado lejos, se ven perfectamente los detalles y queda situado en su contexto.

    1. Yes, that is why it had a muddy bill, thanks Miguel.

  2. Not too far at all Bob. It's good to see a bird in its natural environment at times.

  3. The nerve of that Oyster-catcher. It should have realised you wanted a close-up and come in and posed. Some birds have NO manners.
    A lovely shot of him/her anyway.
