Turnstone eating Shrimp

Turnstone on the Rocks

Turnstone (Arenaria interpres)

This last image is one of my all time favourites.... it froze the moment the mussel squirted water and sand in the face of the turnstone as its' defence... causing the turnstone to turn its' head away and shut its' eye.... it worked for a split second the defence as the next attempt the turnstone ate it.... :YUM:
