Quiet Conwy Estuary

This is the first time here in 4 visits when the tides have been unfavourable so twas hard work getting waders. I’d like to thank dog owners Jack The Lad, Felicity Fudge & Larry The Laff for doing their utmost to frighten Redshank off their feeding areas. The numerous Oystercatchers weren’t too bothered for some unfathomable reason.

A surprise on the beach was a solitary Rook behaving very much like a wader. Got me a couple of reasonable shots of the  7 Curlew I saw.

DW advised me of  a Waxwing flock in the wider area. I’ve noted the place but it may be a bridge to far for tomorrow’s foray.
