Venus Pool - Blackwit duo up close!!

A brief call at Venus Pool - there had been three Black tailed Godwits the previous day, now there were two, and guess where they were? Right in front of the memorial hide!!

I joined a couple of smiling faces, camera soon very busy, saving some amazing moments.....






Posing before feeding away furiously.....








Using those long legs to good effect in deep water....






The looking back over the shoulder moment.....








Looking cool on one leg.....







The preening series, these were blink of an eye moments - looking amzingly relaxed!










Show us your legs!!!






Safe landing.....






The difference a bit of bright sky makes!






I haven't looked at all the images yet, totally bogged down with toooooo many shots - I'm not complaining too much though.....
