What You See Is What You Get. This is a journal blog, an explore-blog, a bit of this and that blog. Sharing where the mood takes me. Perhaps it will take you too.

Another shorebird commonly spotted around here is the Turnstone (or, more formally, Ruddy Turnstone). They generally do not breed here, though, opting for Greenland or Canada for that. They are busy wee birdies, always rustling around on the shoreline, particularly where there is seaweed and, yes, stones to turn over!

Now that is restful. We used to sail down the Thames out of London and anchor in a backwater on the Medway, and awake in the morning to a background of such sounds as waders scoured the surrounding mudflats at low tide. Such a contrast to manmade noise.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful bird with very pretty tweets.
ReplyDeleteThey are truly beautiful little birds, with personality too. I always delight in seeing them.

ReplyDeleteWhat cute sounds they make. At times it almost sounds like a cricket.
ReplyDeleteDelightful birds!
ReplyDeleteAh!
ReplyDeletePretty bird, and they sound very noisy in a group. I suppose turning over stones is a part of looking for food.
