My very first — and also heavily-cropped — photograph of a Common Sandpiper (Flussuferläufer). I saw him for the first time yesterday but wasn't able to take a photo due to the rain. So I decided to go back today and look for him again — and there he was!

They're so difficult to spot. Unless they move, it's basically impossible to see them.

nostr:npub18zzpc58524648mzye8jslg6v4wp2gxevzhuqja2axntw35ydtvcqtruha8 In German, they're called “Riverbank Runner" (Flussuferläufer). I much prefer that over “Common Sandpiper”.

But I do agree. But he's not all that common where I live!
