In an upside down world

this masked lapwing couple (Vanellus miles)
was chased away by joggers at the beach repeatedly.

Feeding sooty oystercatchers (Haematopus fuliginosus)
had to vacate the coastline to make way for footballs.

No one seemed take notice of the native wildlife or was willing to 'Share the Shore' in this 'more-than-human world.'
