I was waiting for some Pelicans to come in closer when this little one started charging over towards me. All these small shore birds are pretty fearless, this one was too busy to even acknowledge me.
Instead of Pelicans I turned my speed up just a bit and let him work his way around me.
He must have been finding something because he went right on by working his way down the shoreline.

These are fabulous shots.
Thank you. I shoot on the shore more in Fall and Winter so I don’t see these little guys often enough.
