A Black-bellied #Plover (in non-breeding plumage), walks stylishly through the muck, where #LandMeetsWater
I love their big black eyes and sturdy black bill.

#WoodStorks to the left and far right. #RoseateSpoonbills with their lovely pink plumage to the right (unfortunately, they have their spoonbills tucked away).
And a bonus #GreatBlueHeron lurks across the #mudflat

For today’s #scape day, I offer a #marshscape with a smidgen of #bird content
The scene is dominated by the leaden pillow sky, and features many layers and textures as we look across the high-tide litter, the #mudflat, and the vast #marsh. A heron/egret landing gives a jolt of white

The Harrington mudflat (here on Saint Simons Island) is adorned with six Spoonies on a dreary day from last autumn. The Spoonies’ buddy, Wilson the Wood Stork finds his way into the photo. The Spoonbill reflections struggle to add a little more pink to the scene.
Here’s an offering for today’s #AllWeathers and #LongLegs #BirdOfTheDay prompts
It was a dreich day on the #mudflat and the #RoseateSpoonbills were doing their best to be pink, but it was difficult. They were also feeling shy so turned their backs to me

The exposed mudflats of Nightcliff Bay on a receding tide. The scattered pioneering mangroves are fully exposed, their breathing root systems like shadows beneath them. Long skeins of very shallow water are still slowly receding with the tide, creating alternating pools and peninsulas across the bay. A dense flock of wading birds is just visible, mid-image on the left, feeding in one of the transient pools.

#ForestFriday or a sparse proto-forest, anyway, my favourite mangroves. More in ALT. Click in for birds 😄.

🌱 Plants that establish on a #mudflat strongly increase the #complexity & drainage efficiency of #tidal channel #networks. 🌊 #Vegetation promotes channel incision & prevents topographic smoothing. 💻Our SFERE model (doi.org/10.5281/zeno...) illustrates this 👇For the study: doi.org/10.1038/s414... 🧪⚒️
A wide expanse of wet sandy mud fills the foreground. Far off in the distance are the tiny figures of a woman and two dogs, walking along the edge of the flat where the sand meets the shallow, incoming tide, almost identical in colour to the flat. Further away still is the relatively low dirt bank of the bay's edge, topped with a dense screen of trees and shrubs.

Volunteer with #SomervilleArtsCouncil to make valentines for local seniors! Meet nice neighbors, cut up construction paper, plug in with volunteering opportunities and orgs […]
On #mudflat elongated #sediment ridges, alternating with shallow drainage channels can form a strikingly regular spatial pattern?
These ridge-runnel patterns do not only affect #hydrodynamics and sediment transport.
They also are quite literally "stepping stones" for #saltmarsh colonization.
