Lunch Time

It wasn't until after I downloaded my pics did I realize what all the excitement in the sand was. As you can see in this bird's beak are 3 perfectly rounded little balls. They have a pearl-like appearance. I think they were digging up some kind of eggs. Maybe crab eggs.

What a great capture Amanda. Isn't that what is so good about digital photography there is always a surprise.
