Skittish and fast, except for this one.

I was being careful to keep a safe distance when I walked by. He was feeding alone and of course a sudden move would be an instant disappearing act.

Instead he walked along side, tapping feet to scare up any sand worms in the surf.

I stopped for another shot, and surprise so did he.

I moved on, he came along too.

It makes life easier when the little guys do all the work for you.
Nice walking buddy and photos 😊
I did not expect any company like that 😂
