Turnstone (Arenaria interpres)

[Juan Aragonés]

This one is not an easy to photograph species here in the south of Spain but this guy allowed me to be close enought as to get my first decent photograph of this species. The green OOF areas in the BG and FG are rocks covered by algae. Comments and critics are welcome

Love the unusual framing provided by the algae covered rock, only if had turned hi face, as mentioned :)

Very nice image,,,,,,the already mentioned head turn and both feet visible would put this over the top. The green moss and scattered shells make a beautiful scene for the subject.
