Island birds - sobrepuestos

Nice homely photo of Mummy and Daddy Negrito pottering around on their own little patch. Got up early to go to La Vega in search of a Tringa favipes (Sp. Pitotoy chico, Eng. Lesser Yellowlegs) that has recently been spotted there, but defeated by poor light, cold and eventually rain.
