Title: Kirkfeild area and Thickson's Woods
Post by: Photoman on May 20, 2009, 07:55:40 PM

Greetings to all :D

  Hope that everybody had a nice long weekend and braved the F5 winds that made it difficult to observe our feathered friends. Had a good outing in the Kirkfeild area on Sunday and then went to Thickson's Woods on Monday.

Enjoy :D

The shorebird is a Least Sandpiper, if I am not mistaken. Wonderful photos!

Going by the greenish legs, I would say the last one is a Least Sandpiper as well.

Nice catch of the Sora too... that's a really hard one to get.

Thanks Andreas and Kin for the correction on the shorebird, I still get stumped on these little guys.
Thanks to all for your comments.
