Tiercel 6,986 Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 Shellduck, Oystercatcher with the curlews and a pair of mallard. It looks like a shovellers head but a shovellers beak is black not yellow. TC Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It looks like a shovellers head but a shovellers beak is black not yellow. TC The Turnstones and Lapwings on page 2 are what I went down there to see, both amazing birds. I took a video of the Turnstones and you can see them feeding, plucking food out of the seaweed on the rocks...very cool There are loads of Oystercatchers here, they're almost getting boring. That place is a nesting ground for Sandwich Turns, they'll arrive in a month or two and are a sight (and sound!) to see. I saw them last year, they were feeding off the eels in the bay, every bird that flew past was carrying on in it's beak. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
