A brown and white shorebird, likely a willet or similar species, stands in shallow water at the edge of the surf, probing the sand with its long beak for food. The bird is captured mid-forage against a backdrop of white foamy waves breaking on the shore. The wet sand reflects the sky and creates a mirror-like surface around the bird. The image captures a quiet moment of coastal wildlife behavior in the late afternoon or early morning light.
