| Highlights from a few hours spent dodging the showers around Morecambe Bay.
Great to see plenty of Curlews in the freshly sown fields adjacent to Cockerham Marsh. |
 |
| Also plenty of Lapwings and Golden Plovers with a female Merlin taking more than a passing interest. Strange how the Lapwing’s iridescent plumage appears even more impressive in the clean, coastal light. |

 |
| Turnstones at nearby Knott End.
A flock of 18 Twite were briefly seen but disappeared over the cafe roof as their normal feeding area was submerged by the rising tide. |

| Dig for victory !
Perhaps this excavator has seen one too many battles. |
 |
| Mmmm………raw, muddy potatoes.
Approximately 42 Whooper Swans enjoying the remains of the potato harvest at Eagland Hill. A high energy snack and just right for recovering after the long flight south from Iceland. |
