Venus Pool - Blackwits feeding up

Back on the 6th June 2006, an amazing group of 68 Black-tailed Godwits dropped in at VP! I remember it well - a sight not likely to be repeated - ever?? But at least today's small group of six was an improvement on the singles normally coming through.....

Feeding up like there would be no tomorrow!


Followed by a spot of bathing......


And wingflaps.....





I sort of knew what was coming next.... and they did, heading south behind the island, soon lost to view......
