Oystercatcher scarer!

Wow! I was expecting a puff of feathers! Don’t think they’re oystercatchers in the video, no orange beak! Might be a Sabine’s gull?

Yeah, the ones in my pic look more like the Wikipedia pic.

Don’t do that! I’m a terrible birder, I only do birds you can eat! I’m thinking it’s an oyster catcher again now but I’ve got me books out!!!
