Beehive Flash

 A trip down to the Beehive Flash this morning before work was rewarded with an Avocet and 26 Black Tailed Godwits.  Would have wrote a bit more but am off to bed due to an early start for Langdon Beck in the morning.

Hi Guys,

thanks for the nice comments, the flight ones were taken with Mr Nikon, the others with Mrs Fuji.

I also have to thank the pillocks in their souped up cars who pass the flash and see you taking pics so rev up their little engines and the noise produced through their exhaust is bloody awful and beep their tiny little horns thus putting the birds up.

I cant wait to see the pics of the chap who was standing next to me with about £3.5ks worth of stuff around his neck. JEALOUS...who me...not bloody likely...LIAR
