Never seen or heard of these - do they really catch oysters? Guess so with those bills! Cool red eyes!

Beauty. I've never seen one. Coastal bird in North America.

Very nice shot! We have them and I got a couple of pics of them a couple of weeks back. I believe they were dining on Mussels at the time ;-)
