Simply a great place to be during this time of the year. Avocets, godwits, gulls and lots of squabbling – wish I lived closer!
Species: Avocet
On the Exe
Following on from the Avocets on the Exe post (It’s all a bit jumping back and forth I know) I followed them, and the flocks of black-tailed godwits onto the estuary as the tide receded.
The Exe Estuary and Mulled Wine!
More to come from Islay later but I managed a few of days down on the Exe estuary last week, again in search of getting some images of geese, dark-bellied brent this time from arctic Russia, in the context of the estuary. It was also an opportunity to witness a spectacle that has to be one of the finest in Britain, the population of avocets that flock in large numbers to this part of the world during the winter.
