Today's stop and discovery point was #CamberSands, near #Rye, at the estuary mouth of the River Rother. On a day like today, warm, cloudless, and a slight south-easterly wind blowing, it was fabulous. Added bonus - almost empty.👍
A first again for both of us, the only stretch of pure sandy beach along the south coast until #TheWitterings, near #Chichester

A further bonus was being able to spot a common tern, a little tern, and a sandwich tern between the dunes and the water's edge.

hot take: a bird is a sandwich

Silver for the Sky King

I believe this is a Sandwich Tern (Thalasseus sandvicensis). I took the photograph from the balcony of a cruise ship docked in Galveston. I captured several shots, but at first I couldn’t quite tell what I was seeing—the bird’s beak appeared oddly shaped, almost deformed. After adjusting and studying the photo more closely, it became clear: the tern had caught a fish.

Step into a world where even the smallest moments—like the glint in a bird's eye—tell their own story.
