Greenshank ..................Tringa neblaria
The lone Greenshank was photographed at Millbrook yesterday afternoon.
I would like to see them arrive at Par along with other waders this Autumn.

Great photo, what on earth is it standing in.
ReplyDeleteGreat, I haven't see one, but there's plenty of time.
ReplyDeleteTrevor, excellent Image.
ReplyDeleteI would say you and your repaired Camera look well matched.
Lovely shot,bang on.
John.
Cracking Greenshank shot, the D300 is a superb camera.
ReplyDeleteSam
Lovely shot. Not seen one of these yet this year.
ReplyDeleteHi Life in Egypt.
ReplyDeleteStrange coloured water covering the muddy bottom.
Hi Bob. I reckon they may be quite scarce around the Forest of Dean. As you say..plenty of time yet.
ReplyDeleteThanks John.
ReplyDeleteIf I attain the cult status you have with that scope then I will be more than pleased.
If S.R is the Bounty Hunter then you must be the Gunslinger. Great Citrine Wagtail shot.
Hi Sam and Lisa.
ReplyDeleteYes it is a great camera and I am glad it all worked out well for you. In hindsight I would not purchase the Zoom Nikkor 80-400mm VR lens again.
Firstly it is a very slow focusing lens...notice I do not put up many flight shots.
Secondly. Nikon do not as yet produce a converter that is compatable with the lens.
I should have gone your route with the 300mm plus converter.
Hi Keith.
ReplyDeleteUnlike the Redshank they do appear to be a solitary bird. We saw plenty of the former at Millbrook but only the one Greenshank.
