Sat having my lunch on a pier the other day when this little bird kept giving my sandwiches the eye !
Just a grab shot as i couldn't get it to pose appropriately - my lunch was it's only aim.
I believe it's a Turnstone but if anyone can confirm / correct I'd be grateful.

Thanks Izzie - the little devils never seem to stand still for a second and birds aren't my normal photo targets.

Yep, it's a turnstone. Looks like a sub-adult.
