Arenaria interpres
A stocky, medium-sized, brightly patterned shorebird with short orange legs and bright reddish sides in breeding plumage.
Breeds on rocky arctic coasts and tundra. On migration and in winter, mostly along rocky shores, but also sand beaches and mudflats
Even though I kept my distance, I don't think they were too happy with me - it looks like they're giving me the evil eye in photo #1 :)
