RE: A Spotted Sandpiper dancing on the rocks
Sandpipers are very funny birds!))) They have interesting behavior and a way of life. Probably because basically we are accustomed to see the passerine birds. And Charadriiform for us is something new.
Yeah, some of them cowardly, like this bird with strange name - https://steemit.com/photography/@ratel/ratel-s-photos-73-water-birds-6
But some doesn't care about human, for example this lil guy - https://steemit.com/photography/@ratel/ratel-s-photos-80-water-birds-7
They are funny birds! Your pictures of the wood sandpiper and the little stint are amazing @ratel!
I've learned to recognize the high pitched call most of them make, usually as they are flying or about to take off. The way they fly is quite amazing too, with their pointy wing tips :)
