WILD BIRD WEDNESDAY - Stormy Day For Waders

I was coming home one morning on a sunny but stormy day and I took these few photographs of Redshank and Turnstone that were hunkering down behind a small slipway at the yacht club.  









I hope you enjoyed this post and thanks for visiting.

    It looks very stormy indeed. I hope the birds found some relief hunkered down low.

    Storms can be deadly and yet strangely beautiful at the same time. The Redshank and Turnstone are lovely birds. Great photos Margaret

    Perhaps those big waves will wash some good food in for those little birds. Fun pictures with lots of action.

    Hunkering is right ... it amazes me how the water birds survive the cold and the wet. Winter is a rough time for them, but they just push through it :P Wish life always worked that way ...

    Redshanks are rare here, their calls are one of the sounds that instantly place me back in the UK on windy marshes...........
