Description
The Sooty Oystercatcher is an Australian native shorebird. It fossicks for shells, mussels, worms and jellyfish on beaches and mudflats near low tide.
Although native to Australia, I photographed this one striding purposefully along a beach in south eastern New Zealand, several thousand miles away from its home.
