Hi
The waders are just starting to return back here from the north and I look foward to having some fun with them in the months ahead. This photo was taken earlier in the year as they were travelling northward and is one of my favourite wading birds the black-tailed godwit which I think look very smart in their summer colours. A lower angle would have been nice but this photo was taken from a public hide at RSPB Marshside which obviously restricts what you can do.

Taken with 50D with 500mm lens and 1.4TC at ISO400 F7.1 at 1/1600s
Cheers
