Crikey Philiph a yawning Sanderling no a yawning Sanderling with one leg.
Must have gotten fed up with running about and worn himself out. Nice one

Very nice shot of a particularly attractive species.
Another compositional option would be to crop a little off the bottom,just enough to lose the out of focus pebbles.

I quite like the oof f/g pebbles, I think it adds to the composition.
Whites look great also, nice work.
An excellent shot of this super little bird, only minor nit is the pale rock behind but not a lot you could do about that, but sharp detailed and a great pose.

Very nice shot. Agree with comments made about the pale rock behind the bird.

nice shot with plenty of detail in the plumage. I also like the expression on the Bird's face.

Nice low angled shot, although I'd prefer it if the Sanderling hadn't shown us what it had for breakfast
