Avocet - a photo on Flickriver

Avocet

            Another trip to Slimbridge in early April. A lot of the over Wintering birds had left and the outer fields and Tack Piece Lagoon were very quiet.

Weather was a bit duller than expected with just short periods of sun.

A Avocet feeding in the shallows of the Lagoon.

The Avocet is a distinctively-patterned black and white wader with a long up-curved beak.
