Bar tailed Godwits at Minsmere

Had a good day with my bird friends out on the Suffolk coast yesterday at Minsmere RSPB reserve.  The sun shone and the wind was chill but l was wrapped up warm.  Saw quite a few different bird types which people were always happy to name for me - the dainty Avocet, dashing black headed gulls, various ducks and on our last stop before heading back to the bus a Bittern which is  a great rarity.  The main photo and extra are bar tailed Godwits.  These birds have been known to migrate from Siberia all the way to Tasmania and New Zealand non stop.
