There were impressive numbers of birds on the beach at Hunstanton yesterday, probably more than usual as it was a spring tide so the mussel beds were exposed at the very low tide. Curlews remain my top wader both in flight and camouflaged feeding on the ground but Bar and Black-tailed Godwits are near contenders. The cameos between the Egrets and other waders were amusing and showed their relative size against the Herring gull and Redshank
