Common Redshank

Common Redshank / tringa totanus. 12/04/19.

 

Although it looks dead on it’s feet, I can assure you this Redshank wasn’t! It’s just the angle of it’s head in my image.

Favouring a small muddy island near the edge of a pool, it patrolled tirelessly probing for food. I had hoped it would move closer but it stuck to it’s self imposed limits. They are extremely wary, nervous birds in my experience.
