Sanderling Calidris alba February 20th, 2018 Killarney, Victoria, Australia Canon EOS 1D X Mark II Canon EF 600mm f4L IS II USM lens Canon EF 1.4x III Extender A trip to Port Fairy just wouldn't be complete without a visit to the beautiful beaches of the Belfast Coastal Reserve & Killarney. The highlight for me is photographing these wonderful little Sanderling, darting along the ever-changing shoreline feeding on tasty morsels.

I love watching these guys race into the wet sand on the ocean's edge to feed as the water recedes, only to scurry back as the next wave washes onto the shore.
