🤔 Can you decipher our coastal waders in pixelated form?

🤓 Sometimes, we only get a glimpse or a partial view of birds while we're out along the coast, so a bit of brain-training to help you identify birds from only colours, shapes and patterns can never be a bad thing!

🙌 We'll have a few more of these winter-wader rounds coming up before Spring, so keep your eyes peeled!

🌞 Great to start the new year off with a bright, bracing and VERY brisk guided walk at Long Rock today!

🦆 Whilst there were a good number of waders about, the highlight was probably hearing the Kingfisher's 'peep' as it zoomed along the inland creek.

🙌 Many thanks for all those brave souls who faced the wind with us!
