Swede’s Photographs

Shrimp Thief

In this image, a laughing gull (Leucophaeus atricilla) is captured mid-flight, having just snatched a shrimp from the water. Upon closer inspection, the shrimp is visible in the gull's beak, along with droplets of water suspended in the air from its dramatic takeoff. Meanwhile, in the lower left corner, a sanderling (Calidris alba) strolls by, passing a piece of driftwood resting on the sandy shore.

Swede’s Photographs

Mudflat Wanderer

The textures of the low tide mudflats make this photograph of a foraging sanderling (Calidris alba) captivating, especially with its reflection in the shallow water between the rises. Look closely, and you'll notice a tiny, barely visible morsel in the bird's beak.

I've had several inquiries about how to get prints of my photographs. Photography is a hobby for me, so I haven't been equipped to handle those requests. However, I enjoy what I'm doing and want to share my work.

To make it easier, I set up an account and website with Pixels. You can visit my website at:

If you want a print of one of my photographs, you can get it there. If I haven't uploaded the photo you want, let me know which one it is, and I'll gladly upload it for you.

"The image showcases a sanderling, a small shorebird, navigating the low tide mudflats. The bird is captured in a side profile, showcasing its distinct markings and slender legs. A tiny morsel is barely visible in its beak, highlighting the sanderling's foraging activity. The mudflats present a mix of wet and dry textures, with reflections of the bird visible in the shallow water. The warm lighting indicates that the photo was likely taken during the golden hour, either at sunrise or sunset. The photographer's watermark, "© Swede's Photographs," is present in the top right corner." - Copilot

Tidal Pool Runner

I love these images of birds moving across water, they convey action - they're fun. This is a sanderling (Calidris alba) and even though the bird isn't quite in focus, it is enjoyable.

"The Sanderling is one of the world’s most widespread shorebirds. Though they nest only in the High Arctic, in fall and winter you can find them on nearly all temperate and tropical sandy beaches throughout the world." - allaboutbirds.org

"The image captures a charming sanderling mid-stride as it scampers across a serene tidal pool. One of its legs is lifted, which gives a wonderful sense of motion. The calm water of the tidal pool mirrors the bird and includes some scattered seaweed or debris, adding a touch of natural texture. The background is blurred to keep the viewer’s attention on the lively sanderling and its reflection. The image has a signature "© Swede's Photograph" in the bottom left corner, a nice nod to the talent behind the lens." - Copilot

Looking Good

This sanderling (Calidris alba) appears to study its reflection in the water. I'm sure is just foraging for food.

"The Sanderling is one of the world’s most widespread shorebirds. Though they nest only in the High Arctic, in fall and winter you can find them on nearly all temperate and tropical sandy beaches throughout the world. The Ruddy Turnstone and the Whimbrel are the only other shorebirds that rival its worldwide distribution." - allaboutbirds.org

Who are you going to call, Ghostbusters of course, but before you do that, visit my photo gallery at:

The image shows a sanderling, a small shorebird, standing in shallow water. The bird is facing towards the camera with its beak pointed down, and its reflection is visible in the water below. The sanderling appears to be foraging, likely searching for food in the wet sand or mud. The scene is serene, with the calm water and the bird's reflection adding to the tranquil atmosphere. The presence of the bird in its natural habitat, engaging in its typical behavior, makes the image interesting and relevant for those who appreciate wildlife and nature photography. The text "© Swede's Photographs" is visible along the left side of the image. It's always fascinating to see birds like the sanderling in action, even if they aren't exactly admiring their reflections." - Copilot
