New Brighton Ebbing Tide

SashaQ writes: Recently at New Brighton a good number of birds took advantage of the ebbing tide, when fresh nutrient-rich sand was revealed. I can see:

  • Black-headed Gulls in winter plumage, with grey backs, red legs, white heads and black 'ears'
  • Juvenile Herring Gulls - larger than the Black-headed Gulls, with brown and white speckled plumage
  • Turnstones - small birds with dark head and back plumage, and white underneath
  • Sanderlings - small birds with pale grey and white plumage

Various birds exploring the boundary between sand and water's edge
