Going with the Alt theme of #Waders for today's #BirdoftheDay and a Marbled Godwit seen on our walk this morning. It would make a good sun-dial with that long bill. #Birds 🪶 #ECK

One of the main reasons I was out on the Estuary today was to check the Ringed Plover nesting area, and yes, there is a bit of competition going on between the males. A female was to right of frame.
