Black Oystercatchers

Lumix DMC-G5, Lumix 100-300mm

These striking shorebirds do not usually eat oysters despite their name. They mainly feed on small mollusks along the shoreline. These were seen at Heron's Head park at India Basin. I like the vivid colors in their beaks and eyes, could they be SF Giants fans? :)

Warren,

Nice details. I'll post one of my pictures from the side. I didn't get him having a late afternoon lunch.
