Oyster catcher.

Every year we have two pairs of Oyster catchers nest on a high wall in the next village. As spring approaches I always look out for them because I then know the better, warmer weather is hopefully not to far away.

They are lovely looking birds, I love their orange needlelike beaks :)

Wonderful capture! According to the Audubon Field Guide, these birds can also be found on the Texas Gulf Coast so the next time I'm there I'm going to look out for them. Fav! :-)
