Oystercatcher / Scholekster (Haematopus ostralegus)

Oystercatcher / Scholekster (Haematopus ostralegus)
Big surprise to find two of these at the central meadow in the park two days ago. It was early in the morning and after the rain we've been having there was no doubt a lot of food to be found there. I couldn't get very close to them and only brought my 300mm but luckily I also had a 2x extender with me so these were at 600mm, a combo I only use in emergencies. This was such an emergency. :)
So, not the best of shots, but Oystercatchers in the middle of the city, in a park?
