The bittern moved so slowly and hardly rippled the water. Its plumage is rich and breaks up its outline. Despite being no longer in breeding plumage, the ruffs still lived up to their name: pugnax.
Sandwich terns hovered before diving. Common terns collected the same little fish the bittern was catching. The reeve had muddy feet, and the turnstone is well-camouflaged among the mussel and razor clam shells of Nature's waste tip. Lastly the sandwich tern is a powerful flier.
