I was a few hours early for a meeting so I went for a walk along the south Dublin coast with my camera bag. I've been trying to get a good shot in Belfast of these without joy for 6 weeks. I then get this while wearing my best suit, walking along a path within 2 hours :)

Bravo! These are wonderful birds, and very difficult. You did a great job on the exposure.

Very nice shot. I've yet to figure out how he's going to get the oyster out of his fortress though. :)
