More Wild Life

Last week I took a trip “Doon The Watter” (except I went by road rather than boat.)
Birds on foreshore at Greenock
On the shore at Greenock were these birds which at first I thought were oystercatchers but the plumage isn’t quite right and the beaks are too orange. Does anyone have any idea what they are?

They are oyster catchers Jack. There has been a proliferation of the buggers in recent years.
Very noisy!
I’m trying to balance my RSPB sympathies with the fact that I live not a quarter of a mile from the sea!
