When it comes to photographing wading birds, Sanderling appear very high on my list of favourites. They can be quite confiding but are always constantly busy searching for food at the water's edge of an incoming tide. This gives great potential for some interesting action photography with the further bonus of watching the behaviour of these birds at close quarters.
The fun really starts when they are in full stride along the beach and these small birds cover ground very quickly.

without wings is a great shot!
great blog!
Beautiful series of images of this cute bird. I particularly like the last 2 images where the birds airborne without actually flying. The lighting, the exposure and the shutter speed is just perfect...Thomas
Excellent Sanderling Photos in Perpetual Motion. They are some of my favourite shorebirds too.
Excellent - gorgeous light and precious low POV! Bravo!
Cheers, Klaus
God I love these photos they are gorgeous. The depth of field and point of view really make them... Made me look at these birds in a whole new way. Jane
