10 days in Cyprus - Pied Wagtail and Common Sandpiper

A return visit to the beach resulted in photographs of two more species.

 

Firstly, a Pied Wagtail landed nearby and proceeded to catch and eat a small dragonfly.

And a pair of Common Sandpiper moved amongst the rocks, bobbing up and down as they went.
