When the Oystercatcher is back, it is Spring.
I found this information at Wikipedia:
This oystercatcher is the national bird of the Faroe Islands, where it is called tjaldur.

Kan være en trivelig kar han Tjeld, men ikke når egg og fugleunger kommer - da er det høyst utagerene atferd mot pressefotografer og ellers.
Quite a striking bird in black and white with that bright orange beak.
Lovely capture!

Dette er vårfuglen nr. 1 på våre kanter. Når den springer rundt i fjæra, -og roper ut om kulda at
