    Default Sanderling with a Sand Crab

    The sanderlings at the Morro Bay beach seem to live off these California Sand Crabs, and nothing else.

    Nice bird. Good EXP. It is hard to make out the sand crab. Let's see a Sanderling with a sand crab in its mouth!

    Nice low angle and good sharpness Aidan. Exposure looks nice too. Agree with Artie's suggestion about seeing more of the crab. I might remove the specular highlights from the bird's bill.
