Avocets

Post by Clive60 »

Hundreds of Avocets are settling in for the Winter at Arne RSPB although 1000+ are expected.
Freezing my nuts off today for a few birds, -1c when I arrived!! :)
The Firecrest and Great Grey Shrike eluded me. :(
The best I could do with my non DSLR camera.

Loads of Goldcrests around but getting a good shot was nigh on impossible.

Nice birds. Not had time to go for a local walk for many weeks, really need to get out there. Avocets look really exotic to me.

Not many Avocets up here, but they're starting to colonise the last couple of years (as summer visitors; pic from April) icon_thumleft
