Observation details

#15--on beach of 1st "day use" site on S side; presumed just 1 bird at first, as I approached more & more closely taking photos; odd it didn't fly away?--ah, what I presumed to be a piece of refuse stood up on the sand and weakly flew a little distance; the other bird was apparently its attendant mate; reported to the Wildlife Rescue Team on the way home; pinkish/orange legs, white outer wing triangle: got photos
