Sanderling - Hoylake
A bird that I concentrated on while at Hoylake was the little Sanderling. A wading bird similar in size to the Dunlin which was also seen in good numbers at Hoylake. In winter plumage here, it has a lovely silvery grey colour on top and an almost pristine white underneath. It is a winter visitor here but a little bird I love seeing all the same. So apologies if I've over indulged with too many pictures.

I don't think you over indulged at all Adam. Sanderlings are cracking little birds winter or summer so why not take lots of lovely shots like those?

ReplyDeleteI especially like the one of the close up. Wow.

ReplyDeleteWonderful to watch little shorebirds scamper along the beach, especially close-up like your excellent captures. Great series on all your posts.
ReplyDeleteNo such thing as over-indulging when it comes to bird photos! Great shots, Adam!
ReplyDeleteI love these little guys and you can show as many of them as you like! I can't go to the beach with my neighbors here in Florida because they all just want to lay out on the sand and I want to walk and take pictures. It's a wasted trip for me if I don't see shorebirds! Thanks for showing yours.
ReplyDeleteWow they are some crazy close ups of Sanderling! It must have taken some effort/skill/patience to get so close.
ReplyDeleteEvery week you give me a lovely new bird I've never heard of to admire. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots, they are very pretty birds!

ReplyDeleteWell done. #animaltales
Super pics of a lovely bird. I like Hoylake, off there soon.
ReplyDeleteDon't ever apologise for posting lots of pictures - they are so fab. Sanderlings are not birds I am familiar with yet they are gorgeous. I love the fact they are a bit "dumpy" ... am I allowed to even say that?
ReplyDeleteThank you for adding more lovely bird pictures to #AnimalTales
