 As Graham said, light was poor and the birds seems to be less inclined to come into the pits as they used to...so the groupings were less impressive. But the flights and murmurings over the Wash were spectacular as usual. There were about 40 people on the shoreline despite the cold and time of day. I cant help feeling that this modern day line of humans under their flight path was causing them to veer away elsewhere.o.O

 Colour temperature was all over the place with grey frosty blues apart from periodic sun glimpses. Everything was a bit desaturated....even the stonechats...

 Even on summer days the murmurings are a visual spectacle rather than a photographic opportunity. I suppose video would add to the possibilities?

 Another from our recent Norfolk shoot. Redshank Nikon D850 with 500mm & x1.4, slightly better light for this.

That sunrise crop is excellent, Graham. Mine didn't seem sharp enough so I left it full frame.:needsahug:

Nice shot Eric but what type of Geese were they?

Greylags.
Later, when the light had risen this group flew into the pits.
Seeing the white goose I jokingly said to Graham 'oh look a snow goose'. Half the hide dropped their bacon sandwiches and coffee flasks and grabbed there telescopes.



We left the hide quickly. :lol:

:lol::lol::lol:
