Redshank found a small dry elevated place in the water for a superb view of the sourrounding waters.
1/1250s, F5.6, ISO 8000
Lots of Redshanks right up close at Mudeford Quay today, and nice to see people keeping their dogs under control while they were feeding #p1000 #birds #birdphotography #redshank #dorsetwildlife #Mudeford
Common Redshank draws attention to an important sign:
"Brut- und Rastgebiet – Bitte nicht betreten" (Breeding and resting area – Please do not enter)
1/1600s, F5.6, ISO 640
Redshank chicks can feed themselves within hours of hatching. Both parents often split the brood between them and go their separate ways to raise the young. They only team up again the following spring.
