Variable Oystercatcher's (Haematopus unicolor)

Used my usual trick of getting closer to these guys by crawling on my elbows holding the camera up but I had a short sleeved shit on and the sand and shells cut me to bits. Such pain for birdforum!
Scientific name
Haematopus unicolor
Supporter
Looks like they're having a good laugh at you for your efforts! "Does he think we can't see him?" "Ha! Let him crawl some more. He won't be doing that soon again" ;)
Thanks for the lovely shot! Now go put somethink soothing on those elbows |=)|
