NF Photo 100823 at Djulö Kvarn
Drillsnäppa - Actitis hypoleucos - Common Sandpiper
The first photo was shot at Strandstuviken where I birded last week. The second two was shot at Djulö Kvarn when I was paddling. I was so surprized as I have never seen any waders there before. Or in the entire lake. This is a residential district and the two birds were walking just in front of a house. I came quite close too, in my kayak. Maybe they did not see me as a human where I sat in the kayak. BPW 105

den är min favorit också.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. I have also found that I can get closer to waders when I am in my kayak.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots of the Sandpiper. The second one, with the bird in the grass is fabulous. I need to get a kayak.
ReplyDeleteSnäppor är vackra och det är första året som jag lagt märke till först i år, speciellt när vi rör oss på havet längs kusten.

To have waders that close to a house would be great if they don't have dogs or cats.
ReplyDeleteyes it should, ;)
ReplyDeleteKayak is probably the same like car. With a car you usually get much closer to birds too. Weird, no?
ReplyDeleteLove the Sandpipers. Beautiful fellows (and photos) :)
I see so very much from my kayak. It is so exciting to be able to float quietly up onto a mudflat or a sandbar and just watch them. ~karen
