another new bird id for me!

These I found this morning. They are Ruddy Turnstones (Arenaria Interpres). Never seen them around before and got as close as I dared to them without being washed out to sea

: ... Anyone else seen them before? I'm wondering if they're migratory or not.

Well they are certainly interesting, those are some orange legs!

Always neat to see and capture a new bird. For more info on the species try this link - http://www.birds.cornell.edu/programs/AllAboutBirds/BirdGuide/Ruddy_Turnstone.html
