Little Ringed Plover

This little guy was getting absolutely drenched during a heavy downpour. Clearly wasn't too concerned though as it just carried on scanning the shore line for food. I like the Little Ringed Plover. A very nice bird that is always a surprise to see. I don't know why really. I suppose because they are so small that you just don't expect to be able to see them. I love that yellow around the eye.

    You've done brilliantly to get such clear/close shots they always seem to keep their distance.

    So pretty...I do wouldn't mind it in the rain 'bout now. The sultry days we've had a good rain would feel marvelous. Your photos are super as always.
