During our recent trip to Norfolk I was fortunate, at long last, to get a reasonably close shot of a Dunlin (Calidris alpina) plus the added bonus of its own reflection as it rested briefly in a reed fringed pool.

ReplyDeleteI reflect on how time passes differently when I am out in the fields, woods and wetlands. Being there is enough but with your ability to capture the ambiance of the moment, such as you have done with this image, the sharing of it extends that pleasure world wide. Thanks and happy World Bird Wednesday!
A Duplicate Dunlin, you make me laugh!
