Close Encounter - a photo on Flickriver

Close Encounter

            Came across 2 Dunlin (including this one with a slightly wonky beak) foraging in a large puddle on a path above the seawall...they were not bothered one bit by me hanging around either...a strange and nice encounter at Musselburgh.
