Redshank, Oystercatchers

Nice day today, with some pleasant sunshine. There have been quite a few Oystercatchers around of late, since the water level's been so low. They're hard to count because they're quite mobile, but scattered around in different parts of the shoreline, but one day recently I counted 18, which must be a record.

A Redshank was also on the shoreline just off the Pavilion Cafe.
