Taking pictures and recording sounds of redshank it is no problem in Iceland. Redshanks, snipes and whimbrels often can be seen on stakes of palings sitting there along the road even when driving. Redshanks reach a weight of 170 grams and wingspan of about 60 cm, and their population in Iceland is estimated at 140 thousand individuals (2014). Redshank is not a timid and silent bird. Only oystercatchers were louder. In Iceland redshanks were ubiquitous and presented gallery was created within a few days, different from that one in case of crossbill, or black guillemot, when pictures were taken during a single session. The Common Redshank is a graceful object to shooting, especially for someone who takes photos of it for the first time. As for the "starting" gallery I managed to gather an impressive collection of pictures and my own recordings of sound. Welcome...
