Fourteenth time lucky

Had a look at the north end of Cresswell Pond this afternoon. The Long-billed Dowitcher was showing well and allowed a close approach if careful. I finally managed some half decent photos with this being the fourteenth time I've seen the bird! It was also nice to see the bird is starting to moult into summer plumage.

Also seen were 2 Little Ringed Plovers, 3 Avocets and 2 Sandwich Terns offshore.

Long-billed Dowitcher - I've only uploaded the last shot as it shows the orange on the flanks nicely.
