Where the Pacific Ocean breaks against rocky shorelines, Black Oystercatcher pairs stalk about on the rocks and nearby flats. If disturbed, they take flight with loud, ringing whistles, easily heard above the sound of the waves. Their range stretches from Alaska to Baja, but the Black Oystercatcher is scarce along the coast of southern California, where the shoreline is mostly sandy, not rocky.
