Oystercatchers and Seatruck

Image: © Carroll Pierce Taken: 5 Oct 2020

Taken from the promenade in Knott End-on-Sea, Lancashire, I am looking across the southern section of Morecambe Bay towards the western section of the Yorkshire Dales. Oystercatchers are busy foraging on the shoreline while this cargo ship is waiting for the rising tide to turn.
