    Stunning images of the Black Tail Godwit, love the plumage. Would be intersted to know which part of the estuary you captured these great photos.

    Hi Anthony, I captured the images of the Blackwit in the pond next to Ryans field and the Ruff from the usuall place on the roadside looking out on the estuary, feeding adjacent to the main channel.

    Beautiful captures of a beautiful bird, but I am sad to hear of the status of this lovely bird :-(
