BOTD: Black Oystercatcher
Tumblr media
Photo: Len Blumin
"Where the Pacific Ocean breaks against rocky shorelines, pairs of these big black birds stalk about on the rocks and nearby flats. If disturbed, they take flight with loud, ringing whistles, easily heard above the sound of the waves. Their range stretches from Alaska to Baja, but Black Oystercatchers are scarce along the coast of southern California, where the shoreline is mostly sandy, not rocky."

Remote paradise: The wonder of B.C.’s Triangle Island
The black oystercatcher is one of the many species that come to Triangle Island to nest and raise chicks. (This photo was actually taken on land near Cape Scott but included here to show the species.) Oystercatchers are known as an indicator species — they are reliable indicators of the health of coastal ecosystems.

Pool Party! (E-3)
These birds are loosely grouped by their associations with water, and because I didn't want the family BR to get too big. Keep your eyes peeled- there may be someone here who got a little lost, but we don't discriminate here!
