Final part of a glorious day out, which avoided both half term, and awful weather!!

I spotted the odd one out among the spoonbills. It is fantastic to see so many and also the Avocets.

Thanks Jack, the Spoonbill count was about 60 all told I think. A bit lucky, because the previous day all but 4 had gone over to Arne for the day. I guess even a spoonie needs a holiday lol

Thanks Snappy, don't think I've seen that many before, either :) It was a belter of a day :D
