Pilar point in Northern California is a wonderful locale for shore birds. I found three of these guys. They were very accommodating.

Very different too my local Oystercatchers, really like the background and viewpoint you have caught.

Great shot. He won't catch a lot of oysters that way, even if they can't run very fast. :)

Nice shot Bobby, love that "look". I got a lot of that this morning from the American Ostercatchers. Theymade me work for the shots, not big fans of people.
