Thanks Alison. I generally encounter them in flight and identify them by sound rather than sight. Their call is much more croaky than the typical corvid β€˜caw’

Two Bar-tailed Godwit at the seashore; one with its beak tucked into its wing and the other facing left. In front of them is a large flock of roosting Dunlin with a clump of seaweed in the left foreground on the sandy beach. The background is the sea with a small wave rolling into shore. There is a sanderling flying through the frame on the left

πŸͺΆ For today’s #SuperSeabirdSunday I have a shot of two Bar-tailed Godwit at the seashore with a flock of Dunlin roosting in front of them and a Sanderling flying by.

A Stonechat perched on some barbed wire. The bird is in side profile; looking left. The bright sunshine is shining from behind the camera and lighting up the bird and the wire, which travels along the length of the frame. 
The background is out of focus green, shining brightly is the sunshine

πŸͺΆ @alan678.bsky.social has chosen #Photogenic as today’s #BirdOfTheDay.
Alt. is #LightAndShade.

The Stonechat is one of the most photogenic birds I meet. Always looking well, always posing
