Oyster catchers and sand pipers on Nickerson Beach, Long Island, NY. To take these I chose locations where I could stay low and also pay attention as one never knows when a rogue wave will come in. To stay low I was kneeling with my tripod down low in front of me. Sometimes I'll do this in the rifleman's prone position.

Great set Morris! For some reason #6 screams Abbey Road to me

nice shots

those birds have been banded too - is there a refuge near there, or a bird observatory?

Nice set Morris! The second reminds me of the posture of the T-Rex in one of Jurassic Park's scenes.

Those low angles paid off Morris. Nice set. Definitely worth the occasional rouge wave, as long as it's you and not the camera taking the bath.

Lots of good stuff here Morris, but 7 with the leg blur stands out ~ Ron

Great shots Morris, the down low worked well for these. The ones with the breaking waves in the BG really stand out.

Thank you RW,
The beach is a town park for bathing with many areas restricted (such as the dunes and nesting areas) as it's also a State Wildlife Preserve

Thank you Doug,
Yes T-Rex are bird like dinosaurs. There is a good change that T-Rex were covered with colorful feathers

Thank you Fred,
I've been soaked many times and my camera and lens have taken a bath in fresh water. Salt is nasty
