Catching up on some editing and found these from a few weeks ago at the Arno Bay
mangrove trail.
I think Sharp-tailed and Common Sandpipers plus a Red-capped Plover and Pied Cormorant,though these shorebirds are doing my head in lately so not that confident
Lovely collection of photos Rick - you get around to a lot of interesting spots there in SA.
Great one of the red capped plover. Also really like your little pied cormorant portrait - one of my favourite birds. I find the LPC will tolerate me getting quite close if i take it slow and give them time to get used to me.
Some great shots there. The good thing about photographing shorebirds is that there is usually plenty of light.
