Friday before last, after finding the tame kestrel, I headed down to the beach. Starting at the western end the first thing of note were a couple of brent geese

Cormorant and a ridiculously tame kestrel

On Friday I headed to Reculver to try and find some tame waders and hopefully snow buntings. To the east of the castle there was a cormorant perched on a post

Last Sunday went to Reculver in search of waders. Unfortunately the beach was nearly covered by the tide when I got there, and being Sunday morning the area was swarming with dogs and their walkers. I held out little hope of seeing anything but gulls, but went for a nice walk anyway. On top of the cliff is Reculver country park, which is a long thin park with a path running along the cliff and another along the border and a 10m or so band of long grass between the two. Amazingly, despite the constant stream of dogs on both paths, the long grass held 2 or 3 skylarks

While I sort out my flickr account, here is video from Reculver a couple of years ago of a curlew

Photographing turnstones (and other waders)
Monday, 3. August 2009, 19:07:38
When it comes to photographing waders, it can be a challenge to get close enough to them to get a reasonable photo. But turnstones are quite approachable, at least for waders, and on some beaches you can get within a few metres (and sometimes closer) with out them showing any signs of distress.
