For many birdwatchers and nature lovers, the American Avocet is a symbol of hope and renewal. Its graceful presence encourages us to slow down, observe, and appreciate the subtle, interconnected rhythms of life.

Flight Initiation Distance (FID) sequence of the Grey plover. This group fled at a distance of just 43 m, showing greater tolerance to human disturbance than is typical for the species on Mediterranean beaches. #shorebirds #waders

For todayโs #OneLeg prompt โ a #Whimbrel with its long, curved bill, stands in perfect profile on one leg in the #marsh shallows
It is backlit by the setting sun, which creates a #silhouette effect. Many mini-reflections on the water provide lovely faerie-lights

Sanderling, at the Long Nanny, Northumberland. This bird dipped down into the water at the tides edge with its bill open, apparently drinking.
Sanderling at the Long Nanny, Northumberland yesterday. I knew they were salt-adapted to deal with marine prey, but donโt recall seeing one (apparently) drink seawater before #birds #waders #UKbirding

Annual survival of waders versus adult body mass, migration distance and year of study
New article in Oikos with a global review of annual survival for waders comparing estimation methods and phylogeny. Survival increases with body mass but decreases with migration distance and during past 40 years. Team led by @dillensegerg.bsky.social. #ornithology #waders doi.org/10.1002/oik....

The #birdoftheday theme today is #grounded, any bird on natural ground. Here's a few Turnstone pic's taken a few years ago on the beech at Prestonpans, East Lothian.

Two male Ringed Plovers facing up to each other with bills open.
The leftmost bird is now on the wing and bearing down upon the other
The right hand bird has now taken to the wing as the other lands and is now bearing down on it.
Both birds are now grounded and face in opposite directions
One of the main reasons I was out on the Estuary today was to check the Ringed Plover nesting area, and yes, there is a bit of competition going on between the males. A female was to right of frame.
