These are young. Here in the city the youngstersare much bigger. Almost as big as their parents but not old enough to feed or protect them self. Their parents are in constant stress to take care of their youngsters.

  Yes, many oystercatchers now breed eg, in on roofs on cities, because agribusiness makes the countryside unfit for them.
