Season opening....

 Hi there!

My first year blog entry was delaing too much, so with the excuse of the Worldshorebirdsurvey here comes what I saw this sunday in my third oficial counting of the year (there is a marked schedule that every participant must follow in their choosen sites).

In a very cold and windy afteernoon I managed to observe a nice migratory group of common redshanks in the southern dich, meanwile theree little ringed plovers were lingering in the northern shore, to far to take a decent pic.

Things seem to start activating in this forthcoming prenuptial season that I will try to keep one eye as much as I can....

(so far a few lapwings and two snipes were my shorebird records in my local patch this year/winter. I have known that a dunlin and a few avocets were detected this weekend, but I was unable to twitch them.... 



Nice migratory flock of wary and nervous birds.
