And then there were two! Probing around on the beach at sunset on a bitterly cold afternoon in Filey Bay in Yorkshire (UK) (0022).
Continuing from the last two shots, this is the third when it probed a different spot with its beak
In der Reihe der letzten Bilder ist dies das dritte, in dem der Sandregenpfeifer an einer anderen Stelle weitersucht und mit dem Schnabel herumstochert

Tiny Snowberry Clearwing Moth taking nectar from a wild Giant Ironweed flower while in flight during a stiff breeze.
Common and abundant.
The Nuthatch, for me, is a very occasional garden visitor usually grabbing a sunflower heart from the feeder and flying straight off. I was therefore delighted when this one probed some of the crevices possibly looking for insects.
Thank you all for your kind responses.

A ruddy turnstone (arenaria interpres) probing stones and dead pieces of coral for something to eat. Photographed near Belle Mare, Mauritius.
Brown Creeper probing the bark of a tree in my yard in Chester County, PA, for tiny morsels of food.
These little birds are very difficult to photograph, not only are they exceptionally well camouflaged, but they also never stop moving.

One of the delights of a lush garden in tropical Queensland, apart from the colourful butterflies, is the sight of an Olive-backed Sunbirds flitting about among the flowers, probing them with its gracefully curved bill, often while hovering. Equally enchanting is stumbling across its strange, suspended nest, hanging from a twig or part of a building by a long, thin cord of grass and fibres. Sunbirds are often rather confiding when nesting in people’s gardens, allowing a close approach if you are quiet.
A common spoonbill (platalea leucorodia) probing and sifting through the shallows of a waterhole with sweeping movements of its broad bill. These birds have a varied diet of aquatic insects, mollusks, newts, crustaceans, worms, leeches, frogs, tadpoles and small fish. Photographed in Yala National Park, Sri Lanka.

Team working for juicy morsels! Probing around in the soft sand on the receding tide on the East Yorkshire coastline (UK) (5882)
Yesterday I posted a shot of two Bar-Tailed Godwits at Wynnum. Here is another one completing the deal as its probing of the mud has been successful with what appears to me a small crab.
The Hadeda ibis (Bostrychia hagedash) uses a feeding strategy known as probe foraging, inserting its long, curved bill into soft substrates to search for underground prey such as earthworms and insects. This behavior is supported by a specialized sensory adaptation called remote-touch.
At the tip of the bill lies the bill-tip organ, containing tens of thousands of sensory pits embedded in the bone. This structure enables the detection of minute vibrations produced by moving prey, allowing the bird to locate hidden organisms without visual cues.
Experimental studies have shown that the effectiveness of remote-touch is strongly influenced by soil moisture. In wet soils, vibrations transmit more efficiently, significantly increasing prey detection rates. In contrast, dry conditions reduce this ability, forcing the ibis to rely on random probing.

Preparing for migration, an ‘akekeke in breeding plumage flips stones and intently probes the exposed tropical reef flat for invertebrates. It needs to fatten with enough stored energy for an over water migratory flight of 3,000 nonstop miles from Hawaii to Alaska. The journey will require an exhaustive, marathon effort of 3 to 4 days and nights of nonstop flight.

Not sure what’s happening here. The heron selected a stick that was floating by, then proceeded to use it almost like a probe. Maybe to stir up the sediment and food matter that it may contain?

With an expansive migratory range, the wandering tattler lives up to its name. ‘Ūlili, the Hawaiian name, resembles the wandering tattler’s alarm call. On tropical islands it prefers probing crevices and crannies on intertidal shorelines and exposed reefs for invertebrates, often dodging breaking waves. ‘Ūlili were considered messengers and scouts of the gods.
A magnificent navigator, the tattler annually migrates from Alaska and Canada to tropical Pacific islands on a high endurance non-stop flight of 3 to 4 days over thousands of miles of featureless open ocean. Using the stars and the earth’s magnetic field (perhaps visually with quantum entanglement) to find its way. Tringa incana, non-breeding plumage.
Probing for nectar, a mejiro spreads pollen between the shandilay blossoms. Mejiro, Japanese white-eye, Zosterops japonicus. Klip dagga, Leonotis nepetifolia.
A hunakai actively probes the wave washed sand for small crustaceans and other sand burrowers. It stays in constant motion chasing each wave as it recedes. Sanderling. Calidris alba.
A painted stork (mycteria leucocephala) probing the muddy waters of a small waterhole for food. Photographed in Yala, Sri Lanka.
The godwits are a group of large, long-billed, long-legged and strongly migratory waders of the bird genus Limosa. Their long bills allow them to probe deeply in the sand for aquatic worms and molluscs. In their winter range, they flock together where food is plentiful.
A just reward for all the effort it had put in.........
Snipe
Scientific name
Gallinago gallinago
A medium-sized wader, the snipe lives in marshes, wet grassland and moorlands, where it nests in simple scrapes. It uses its long, probing bill to find insects, earthworms and crustaceans in the mud, typically swallowing prey whole. During the breeding season, males can be heard making a unique 'drumming' sound as their tail feathers vibrate in the wind as they perform their aerial courtship displays.
How to identify
Snipe are brown, with an intricate pattern of black and gold bars, and a stripy brown and gold head. They have short, greyish-green legs and a very long, straight bill. The snipe is smaller than the similar-looking woodcock and is a bird of grasslands and moorlands, rather than woodlands.
Did you know?
Snipe have a flexible tip to the beak that is full of nerves; this helps them to feel for worms deep underground and then open the end of their beak to grab them.
