When a predator is spotted the knot are quickly into the air. This is the start of the madness that ensues as every ingle knot takes off

This week's theme for Mosaic Montage Monday was Knots. I'm not sure what they mean, but I thought they were interesting. HMMM!

Have no idea how many were in the flock but must be tens of thousands. I am certainly Knot going to try and count them.
I like the fact that the sheer density of birds is partly shading others in the flock from the bright rising sun.
…… Don’t you just hate it when your leads get in a tangle mangle and you get in a muddle fuddle trying to detangle!!! Unless that it is it’s all for Macro Monday! HMM, Alan:-)…….

Camera straps can be the most important thing to a photographer yet have very little to do with taking a picture. I always use a strap, yet I like to remove it from the camera when I put it away. This is a strap that I made from parachord and a set of Peak Design clasps. the knot is called a lanyard knot and I had to watch and re-watch a YouTube video a dozen times before I finished the two that are on either end of this strap. I couldn't tie that knot now if my life depended on it without finding the video I watched to tie this one. Happy Macro Mondays everyone. Thanks for any views, likes and comments.
Stocky, medium-sized shorebird with relatively short bill and legs. Combination of shape, overall color, and bill size usually distinctive. Beautiful breeding plumage shows entirely salmon-orange underparts and silvery wings with intricate patterning. Nonbreeding is plain gray with pale underparts and a white eyebrow; juvenile similar but with scaly pattern on wings. Usually shows dark barring on flanks. Legs are dull greenish or gray. Widespread and fairly common, breeding on high Arctic tundra and wintering on coastlines around the globe, as far south as Tierra del Fuego. Most numerous on beaches and mudflats; less common inland. Occurs in flocks, often mixed with other shorebirds. Compare with larger, lankier, longer-billed Great Knot in Asia and Australia. Feeds on a variety of small invertebrates; West Atlantic population reliant on horseshoe crab eggs during spring migration. eBird
The Knotted Gun.non-violence, is a bronze sculpture by Carl Fredrik Reuterswärd from 1980, which depicts a revolver with a knot on the barrel. At the Museum of Sketches in Lund, there is a sketch for the revolver where Reuterswärd noted that it was the grief after the murder of John Lennon in 1980 that made him design the work.
The work is located in several places in the world, including outside the United Nations headquarters in New York, Berlin and Beijing.
