I wanted to try to get a feel for the excitement of the flight of the large flock of Black-tailed Godwit and the frenzy when the ducks etc are fed at midday at Welney. I used a slow shutterspeed (15th to 50th/sec) and achieved a few images that came near to meeting my previsualisation.

RSPB Titchwell
Although a wet day was forecast, we actually only had one very short shower at lunchtime while we were eating lunch inside the visitor centre and the afternoon was fine with good skies and light. Apart from the Snow Buntings, other species included Black-tailed Godwit, Curlew, Bar-tailed Godwit, Sanderling, Goosander, Little Egret, Linnet and Teal

Birds at Hunstanton
Some shoreline birds from my visit on July 8th on a mostly overcast afternoon. I was trying to capture movement and flight as flocks of waders etc moved through when the tide receded and exposed the mussel-bed-feeding grounds. I also attempted to capture the Fulmars and Swifts that nest in the cliffs - not a great success rate!!

Welney Morning Birds
We spent the rest of Sunday morning (after a breakfast in the cafe!!), general bird watching and 'snapping' on the main reserve so here a flavour of the session and including Cattle Egret and ?Chiffchaff (a pair were flitting in the bushes - presumably overwintered in UK).
