The American Oystercatcher, with its bright orange bill and striking black-and-white plumage, is hard to miss along the shore. A true coastal beauty, probing the sand for its next tasty meal.

Finnish Oystercatcher (actually meriharakka = sea magpie)

Not that much different

Oh, cool! It looks like there are variations around most of the world. There are supposed to be some where I am going this weekend, so I'll have to keep an eye out.

Looking at the Oystercatcher wiki, the Brits/Americans used to call them Sea Pies, but once their shellfish eating was noted, the Oystercatcher name gained popularity.

Carl Linnaeus named the genus Haematopus, "blood foot", for their red legs and feet, though they look more yellow-orange to me. 🤔

Some species look to be all black with very red eyes, but they all keep a similar motif otherwise.
