The ruddy turnstone (Arenaria interpres) is a stocky, short-legged shorebird renowned for its distinctive habit of flipping over stones, shells, and seaweed with its sturdy, slightly upturned bill to uncover hidden prey. A highly migratory species, it breeds on the high Arctic tundra of northern Eurasia and North America before travelling vast distances to winter on coastlines across six continents, from rocky shores to sandy beaches.
This serene photograph captures a ruddy turnstone in non-breeding plumage perched alertly on a rugged coastal rock, its mottled brown-and-white feathers providing perfect camouflage against the textured stone. The bird's short orange legs grip the surface firmly, while its dark, slightly upturned bill points forward, and its sharp eye surveys the surroundings with quiet vigilance.
A softly blurred background of turquoise ocean waves and sparkling bokeh highlights creates a dreamy coastal atmosphere, emphasising the bird's compact form and natural habitat.
Warm natural light accentuates the intricate feather patterns and subtle sheen, resulting in a peaceful yet detailed portrait that showcases the turnstone's understated coastal elegance.

Fantastic artwork, great service, from ordering to delivery
Brilliant customer service from the start with an easy website to navigate. Unfortunately when my order arrived the print was damaged, contacted Carol who sent another out for me straight away and kept me updated along the way. Absolutely fantastic service. Thank you
Thrilled to bits with the picture , better than expected
Today I had the pleasure of picking up a framed and mounted print of 'Dandelion Clock' its absolutely stunning. The clarity is just crazy!! Now to decide where to put it!! Really beautiful work.
Absolutely wonderful photo! I bought it for my grandson but my daughter loved it so much that we decided it would be a waste to put it on his bedroom wall. The quality and detail demands a place where everyone can see it. I would definitely recommend this to family and friends. Thank you for the quick delivery too!
Thank you so very much the mugs are really lovely and you have kept me informed how my order was doing right up to the delivery, your service is 1st class and I will be doing business with you again.
