Morning at low tide in the Scheldt river (Westerschelde). A saltwater area that has dried up and is now occupied by various birds.

Eurasian Oystercatchers make a lot of noise, but there are many others.
Enjoy the ambience.

The deep thump of huge seagoing ship engines fill the mouth of the river. One comes from the North Sea, the other goes there.
