Skogssnäppa - Tringa ochropus - Green Sandpiper

First time I was so close to the Green Sandpiper. I spotted it behind some grass and I was afraid to move to scare it away. In the last shot it got some company. A juvenile White wagtail.  :)

I have to say, if it wasn´t for those moving red legs I would hardly see the bird.

Brushane, hane i häck dräkt - Philomachus pugnax - Ruff, male breeding plumage
Far out I noticed a Ruff with a different coloring of the plumage from what I´ve seen before.
