Oyster-Catcher
I think this oystercatcher (Haematopus ostralegus) is an immature one as the eyes of mature adults are a fiery red and their legs are redder too.
Its genus name means ' blood legs'.
I have called my 'extra' "The Three Stooges" but I didn't have time to put a blue tint on the sea of that one so it shows the dull day that it really was.
P.S.
Had problems uploading this entry tonight - It took three goes but I think it is OK now.
