They're back... Skimmers that is!

I was walking with a friend on the beach when we both noticed and delighted in seeing these strangers mixed in with a flock of seagulls and terns. Very distinct in their markings, skimmers are a rare treat, only visiting us during the winter months. These were the first I'd seen this year and of course I had to share.

I've posted many articles about skimmers. If you're interested check back to "New Bird on the Beach" in January 2009; Celebrity Skimmers" in June, 2009 and "Skimmers Return" in December 2012.
