American Avocets. Amazing birds. They are so lovely.
They are intrepid hunters. Graceful and deadly.
See what I mean?
I love the clear distinction between males and females.
Persistent, aren’t they?
Grace in motion and flight . . .

We very seldom see Avocets here in southwestern Ontario. Once in a great while. About 3 years ago, we had one visit my town of Strathroy, Ontario. It stayed for about 2 days and then disappeared. Your pictures are great. Thanks
Thanks! These Avocets were really comfortable with all the people nearby. It’s an active bike/walk trail so they see all sorts of people. I thought they were so beautiful!
