For this gull, though, it was not eating that mattered, but flight.It was morning, and the new sun sparkled gold across the ripples of a gentle sea.Canada Goose on Thin Ice, Central Park 2/28/2015Black-crowned Night Heron (Nycticorax nycticorax), Central Park, NYC 20140729Spotted Sandpipers, Jamaica Bay 10/9/2014DivingFelmale BuffleheadAbout to DiveDiving in iinto a CloudMale Bufflehead Northern Shoveler, Central Park 11/24/2015

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?
