I'm seriously going to kick myself for this one. Had NO FREAKING CLUE I had so many birds in this shot until reviewing what I did today. Was sort of taking pictures of the seagulls on the other side of the break wall (cropped out) and these stealth birds avoided my gaze...maybe they'll be around for a rematch tomorrow.

They Black Oystercatchers?

These I managed to see...mostly. I think they're the same:

And believe it when it's embarrassing to miss THAT many birds sitting there.... LOL. They must be ninja's in their spare time,

Judging the amount of droppings on the rocks perhaps they be there today and I can get a different angle. I need a 'good' picture of one of them.
