Very nice capture in B&W. Clam diggers are a special breed. Used to watch them dig in Maine when we lived there for 15 years. They usually dug at low tide mostly early in the morning.
Thanks Hereford. This was low tide and early for sure. Same schedule as the egrets keep. I usually see them doing their thing in solitude, so it was unusual to see this group. Some of them were clearly engaged in ongoing conversation, so gave it an entirely different kind of feel to the activity.
