Arabesque
Early start which was lovely.......real soul-food. As it was a cool morning I decided to take some time at the Boulder Bank so packed up camera and a light jumper then headed across town........gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! Tide was lower than I expected and with no terns in sight I instead walked to the area behind the ponds in the hope of seeing some fern birds. Heard them but never saw a single one! Very different to Okarito. Did see lots of swallows though......young ones I think, and they kept me entertained for a while. Heading back to the car I noted that some terns had arrived so spent a glorious hour or so in the now very warm sun just sitting, watching and photographing their comings and goings. No great pics but some nice ones. I do think I may need to check my camera's focus accuracy though. A little further on, a family of stilts wading in the very-low-water-level pond. Love the little mullets they appear to have!
