Spoonbill (Slimbridge WWT, South Lake)

It was the reason why I went to that heavenly place called Slimbridge. Unfortunately, it was so far away, I couldn't get a very good picture of it. I had to cut it, enough so you can see it. I hope that you can understand me.

  16. I love these images, Bob.

    I know how difficult it is to be close enough to get a good picture of these birds. Anyway, they are great pictures.

    Warmest Greetings from Spain.
