Stilt Sandpiper

These guys were tough to shoot. They'd run the shoreline or banks of a marsh hunting for food. Once they sensed you watching, they would freeze then bob thier heads up and down (I guess in an attempt to intimidate you).

Once I took a step closer, they would scurry off down the shoreline and eventually they would remember they could fly and do so.
