They are indeed! Here's one I enjoyed watching feed on a sunny (but very windy 🥶) day back in March 😍 #RuddyTurnstone #ArenariaInterpres | #Kent #England | #birdsoftheworld #birds
🌍🌏🌎 Ruddy turnstone (Arenaria interpres) The ruddy turnstone is a stocky shorebird, about 21-26 cm long, with bright orange legs and a stout, slightly upturned black bill. Its plumage is a distinctive harlequin-like pattern of chestnut, black, and white in breeding season, becoming duller grey-brown and mottled in winter. In flight, it shows striking white wingbars and a white rump. Highly migratory, it breeds in Arctic Eurasia and North America, then winters on coastlines almost worldwide, favouring rocky shores, sandy beaches, and mudflats. Its name comes from its characteristic feeding behaviour: flipping over stones, shells, and seaweed with its bill to uncover insects, crustaceans, and other small invertebrates. They can be seen individually or in small groups, sometimes with other waders. 2.5 Flash (Edited) Two subspecies are recognised. Conservation status: Near Threatened (IUCN 3.1) 📷: Photo by paulbr75 via Pixabay https://pixabay.com/photos/ruddy-turnstone-water-nature-1553360/ IHAT

I could spend hours looking at the Ruddy Turnstones, searching for food and treasure between the stones.
