Double banded Plover

[Alan]

Charadrius bicinctus

Quite a few of these birds on the beach at Congo this week.

I thought lying down on the sand would produce the low POV favoured by birders, however, the birds decided to stay slightly behind a sand dune so I lost their feet - another no-no. Can't win.

But it did feel good to get some birds in the viewfinder again
