Siberian visitor by gilbertwood

Siberian visitor

While walking around the river at Ocean Grove I found a group of sweet little birds in the mud flats. I had to look them up when I got home and was excited to find out they are Sharp-tailed Sandpipers who come to our shores from Siberia for our summer :)
@dide and I have been checking out some Siberian visitors as well.. did not get quite as close as this though .. great shot..

What a pretty little bird and you've captured it beautifully. I love the reflection. How amazing that it travels so far. It seems to go from one extreme to the other.

After the Winters they have in Siberia I'm not surprised it comes to you for a holiday, I'm thinking of coming over myself if the snow gets bad. Lovely birdie pic.

WOnderful detail and reflection. How fun to have a far away visitor, and I would want to winter there also ...even if I didn't live in Siberia.
