Still a handful of waders around…
LOTS of Great Egret, a few winter ducks…a nice juvenile Goshawk near my apartment, a few unidentifiable things flitting around in the thinning vegetation…
Some lingerers

Ones
I managed to photograph a few on their own…
35
I think the winter flock of Sanderling totals 35. They were the only thing to photograph at this particular spot yesterday…
Tired?
They looked very tired and didn’t fly around much…maybe they had just arrived for the winter?
Last stints, surely
I’ll be a bit busy the next couple of weeks; by the time I get back to these spots most of the passage waders will have gone..
More Sanderlings
White birds on a sunny day; f/11 not such a big handicap….
Still on the beaches…
Still quite a few stints around…
Winter visitors
The wintering flock of Sanderling had returned to their regular wintering spot…
A bit difficult to get a shot of one bird on its own…
Autumn is here
Much cooler, it’s autumn…and here are some birds from town this last week.
Last of the beachcombers
I imagine these will be the last waders i see for a while…
f/11 yet again
Haven’t used my big lens for a while…
Hiding in the flotsam and jetsam
Lots of the waders were hiding in amongst all the stuff strewn on the beaches…
