Found this guy coming in and out of the reeds foraging for food,he was in the direct vicinity of a mink who came out and grabbed a half eaten cormorant that was laying on the beach(very bold) he then dragged the cormorant into the area where the sora was . Hoping for the sora`s safety.

Great shot and clarity, .....there is a Sora at Rattray marsh which is seen almost daily but it only shows its self on the other side of the marsh too far for pictures
