North American Willet

[Brian Sugden]

Just back from Florida. This was taken on Fort Myers Beach in early morning light. The willet is tackling a cockle. There are lots of cockle shells washed up on the beach but I've never seen one with the mollusc still inside the shell.

1DX with 500mm f4 L IS lens & 1.4 converter.
