Young Oystercatchers look like they are having a good time. But this was really a dominance thing between the chicks to get access to the parent in the BG; the food source.

Great angle and interaction, Stan, it really does tell the story. It looks as if you offered them some food. :)

As you know the Oystercatchers get very tolerant of photographers if you just stay in one place. They will bring the chicks down to the waters edge and just ignore you often passing within one or two feet...to close!
