Their orange feet and bill stripe really make the Black Skimmers stand out.
They were resting here, having just touched down after moving off a sand bar that was about to be covered by the incoming tide.

Love these cool-looking birds. Their beaks remind me of chocolate candy corns, just no white tip. 😉
Me, too! Funny, I’ll think of that now when I see them!
Striking birds, nicely photographed!
Thanks, Belinda! It was a joy to get that close.
