Felt like this was the most appropriate wader to share for - a ruff feeling a bit ruff!
I’ve had my op, and taking things one step at a time. Will be a long recovery period but hopefully I’ll get there.

ok while i do love the splatoon 3 slopsuit i really miss the simplicity of the splatoon 2 salmon run uniform. literally just fishing waders and a hat. total lack of care for safety or anything. love it

I was surprised to see a little group of turnstones still here yesterday, thought they’d all be gone by now. And still not all fully moulted

Dunlin, foraging on the tideline. These tiny little waders have a downturned bill, giving them a slightly mournful expression

Curlew trying to find breakfast and avoid the attentions of some very annoying redshank. I’ve never seen waders pestering a curlew before, though the gulls do it regularly (and they’ve attack the redshank too)

On a visit to Wharfedale this week, the oystercatchers are already back on their breeding grounds; they’re ground-nesting birds so very vulnerable; look out for them and keep dogs on leads if you’re out walking, thanks

My bird books always call knot ‘dumpy’, which I feel is a bit rude and makes me wonder about the writers’ own physiques….this one was skipping quite nimbly through the seaweed yesterday

So easy to forget to paint for fun. This was the underpainting this eve for little reedfringed Suffolky shorepool with waders but after half an hour of smearing it about, in go the wolves hunting wildboar in the snow.
