Standing out in a crowd

There must have been 50 of these oyster catchers sitting on a outcrop into the Atlantic Ocean. Seen while on a marshland tour on the Osprey.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

Looks like it has a band on its leg - I see a "9" there...
