Interesting bird, it's amazing how adaption to the environment works! Ho, I watched a program on the Forest of Dean on BBC yesterday, very beautiful area, i had no idea!
Such an elegant bird. Fantastic you could capture it. Wish I new the Forest of Dean was on BBC. Such a shame I have not seen it. Have a nice evening Bob
Są śliczne z tymi czarno - białymi piórami o dziobem wygiętym do góry. Pozdrawiam.*** They are beautiful with these black - white feathers with a beak curved upward. Yours.
Wonderful, wonderful and so glad you got these. I too encountered a surprise Avocet last year, if you remember and they are such beauties! Well done Bob~
Beautiful encounter Bob and it looks like you really enjoyed it. I've not seen this bird for a bit more than 9 years now, and I used to see it every morning when I went to work in France ;-)
