Oystercatchers do not catch oysters, for the most part. A poorly-chosen name, then. In some languages, they are supposed to be magpies, an even greater error: Wikipedia: "Aufgrund seines schwarz-weißen Gefieders wird der Austernfischer in vielen Sprachen namentlich mit der Elster in Verbindung gebracht, so auf Finnisch als Meriharakka (See-Elster), auf Dänisch als Strandskade (Strand-Elster), auf Niederländisch als Scholekster (Schollen-Elster) oder auf Russisch als Кулик-сорока (Kulik-soroka, Schnepfen-Elster)."

The Oystercatcher is the national bird of the Faroes, Wikipedia again: "Auf den nordatlantischen Färöern ist der Austernfischer unter dem einheimischen Namen Tjaldur ([ˈʧaldʊɹ]) der Nationalvogel, dessen jährliche Rückkehr aus den Winterquartieren am 12. März, dem Tag der Grækarismessa, von den Färingern als Frühlingsanfang gefeiert wird."

Wikipedia: "The red grouse (Lagopus lagopus scotica) is a medium-sized bird of the grouse family which is found in heather moorland in Great Britain and Ireland. It is usually classified as a subspecies of the willow ptarmigan . . . Lagopus is derived from Ancient Greek lagos (λαγος), meaning "hare", + pous (πους), "foot", in reference to the feathered feet and toes typical of this cold-adapted genus, and scoticus is "of Scotland"."

Wikipedia (edited): "The Arctic tern (Sterna paradisaea) is a tern in the family Laridae. This bird has a circumpolar breeding distribution covering the Arctic and sub-Arctic regions of Europe (as far south as Brittany), Asia, and North America (as far south as Massachusetts). The species is strongly migratory, seeing two summers each year as it migrates along a convoluted route from its northern breeding grounds to the Antarctic coast for the southern summer and back again about six months later. Recent studies have shown average annual round-trip lengths of about 70 900 km for birds nesting in Iceland and Greenland and about 48 700 km for birds nesting in the Netherlands. These are by far the longest migrations known in the animal kingdom."

Thalasseus sandvicensis - Sandwich Tern - Brandseeschwalbe - Grote Stern - Sterne caugek - Charrán de Sandwich - Beccapesci - Kentsk tärna - Splitterne - Rybitwa czubata - . . .

Wikipedia (edited): "The Sandwich tern was originally described by ornithologist John Latham in 1787 as Sterna sandvicensis, but was recently moved to its current genus Thalasseus (Boie, 1822) following mitochondrial DNA studies . . . The current genus name is derived from Greek Thalassa, "sea", and sandvicensis, like the English name, refers to Sandwich, Kent, Latham's type locality. In birds, the specific name sandvicensis usually denotes that the species was first described from Hawaii, formerly known as the "Sandwich Islands", but the Sandwich tern does not occur there."

Uria aalge - Common Guillemot (Common Murre) - Trottellumme - Zeekoet - Guillemot de Troïl - Arao común - Uria - Sillgrissla - Lomvie - Nurzyk zwyczajny - . . .

Wikipedia (edited): "The common murre or common guillemot (Uria aalge) is a large auk. It has a circumpolar distribution, occurring in low-Arctic and boreal waters in the North Atlantic and North Pacific. It spends most of its time at sea, only coming to land to breed on rocky cliff shores or islands.

Guillemots are fast in direct flight but are not very agile. They can manoeuvre better underwater, where they typically dive to depths of 30–60m. They breed in colonies at high densities; nesting pairs may be in bodily contact with their neighbours. They make no nest; their single egg is incubated on a bare rock ledge on a cliff face.

Some individuals in the North Atlantic, known as "bridled guillemots", have a white ring around the eye extending back as a white line. This is not a distinct subspecies, but a polymorphism that becomes more common the farther north the birds breed."
