I’m not a bird photographer. I like subjects that stay still… like flowers and fungi. But… I’ll let you be the judge
We start with a “static”… well, at least it didn’t fly off…

Poor little gull, all hungry…

Enter the turnstones… they eat whatever the waves bring in…

Hope you’ve enjoyed. Such wind-thrashed days don’t come every day.

Such wonderful pics. Love the way they’ve lined up at the edge.

A shot that could not be resisted. But what were they waiting for? No fish in that water.

They reminded me of the contestants in 1960s photos of beauty contests… always lined up around a pool

I have the same problem taking pictures of our cat: it will not sit still.

Ironic that butterflies will hold still yet birds will not. And cats are only still when asleep… and even then might twitch & do with dreaming
