It's impossible in this sort of setting, to single out a bird, in the hope it will strike a perfect pose for you to take a decisive moment photo. It's very much a case of taking a photo to record the mass spectical, different to taking a solitary bird photograph. I did contemplate playing a peregrine call on the iPhone....to see if they all looked in my direction. I think the other hide occupants may have objected. ![]()

I have a question.... In Graham's first (wide angle) photo of the gathered host, there is a distinct gap in the crowd leaving an area of shingle empty of birds. Why? ![]() When the birds did their usual shuffle about, no birds transgressed onto this area. No new arrivals filled in that area. It was weird. As if something nasty had been spilt there...yet nothing was visible.

blackfox wrote:probably where king johns treasure lies buried , protected by evil spirits I've always thought that story to be implausible. 'Sorry your majesty, we looked everywhere and couldn't find anything†Assuming he actually DID cross the marsh and lose his treasure chests. The local wildfowlers and bait diggers even now know these marshes like the back of their hands. Back then it would have been no different. They would have been out there on the next low tide to recover it for themselves. Gone in 60 seconds, like the film. ![]()

I wondered about the gap too - maybe it is the landing strip - authorised birds only?
