Thanks. I only post my own work. Note the watermark.
There are several species of Oystercatcher. So yes, the American one (Haematopodidae palliatus) is slightly different.
Ms. Felix has a deft hand with composition, color/texture, Photoshop retouching and Nature. The Pods in Shakespeare Park is my currently my favorite.
In 1 or 2 or so of them I suggest less is more when manipulating Nature. Otherwise, it’s an exhibit of an entrancing natural world; a breathtaking view of Nature in which the viewer enters an amazingly beautiful natural world. Kudos!

Great photos! Are they all yours? I recognise some of the birds. Is the American oystercatcher different to the European species?
