SATURDAY CRITTERS

I was travelling back from Donaghadee  to homr and it
 was high tide and I found these waders feeding on the grass and photographed them from my car.  They are Oystercatcher and Redshank.
I am linking with Saturday Critters. 








Many thanks for visiting and also for leaving comments.

    They are very impressive birds. I love the orange beak and legs.

    Beautiful photos of these two birds. I don't think I've ever seen them in real life.

    Beautiful things. And as always, I am awed at how green it is.

    Wonderful photos, I was lucky to see a black oyster catcher a couple of years ago while on a lagoon in BC

    Oystercatcher and Redshank. Pretty birds, really good pictures. I am guessing that the black and white catches oysters and the other is Redshank. They both seem to have Redish legs?
