In between flapping wildly, there was much fluffing-up after seeing-off the other birds.

Eurasian Oystercatcher

The Eurasian Oystercatcher Haematopus ostralegus, also known as the Common Pied Oystercatcher, or (in Europe) just Oystercatcher, is a wader in the oystercatcher bird family Haematopodidae. It is the most widespread of the oystercatchers, with three races breeding in western Europe, central Eurasia, Kamchatka, China, and Western coast of Korea. No other oystercatcher occurs within this area.

This oystercatcher is the national bird of the Faroe Islands, where it is called tjaldur.

Got bored being in doors so I shot this. It's a print hanging on my wall. Did a bit of creative editing that kind of reflects my mood.
