EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by Don Hadden, we witness a moment of pure gastronomic delight as our avian friend, the Variable Oystercatcher, showcases its culinary skills on Rogers Road Beach in Ohinepanea. With an elegant tuatua shell clamped firmly between its beak, this bird proves that it's not just humans who appreciate fine dining. Hailing from the picturesque North Island of New Zealand, this oystercatcher has perfected the art of extracting mouthwatering morsels from the sandy shores. As it expertly pries open the tuatua shell with precision and finesse, one can't help but admire its resourcefulness and determination. With each bite taken by our feathered foodie, you can almost taste the flavorsome delicacy that lies within. The vibrant backdrop of crystal-clear waters and golden sands adds to the charm of this delightful scene. It's a reminder that nature's pantry is full of delectable surprises waiting to be discovered. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates both beauty and humor as our hungry hero indulges in a seaside feast fit for royalty. So next time you find yourself strolling along a beach in New Zealand or anywhere else around Australasia or Oceania for that matter - keep your eyes peeled for these wader wonders! Who knows what other gourmet delights they might uncover?
