Spectacular!
Knot island during the Snettersham Spectacular this morning.
For those who don't know, at certain high tides the mud flats in the wash are completely submerged forcing the wading birds (mainly Knot, Sanderling and Oystercatchers) to seek refuge on the islands in the RSBP lagoon.
Many of the Knot are in the process of transitioning from summer orange plumage to grey and white for winter.
Couldn't face lugging a tripod down to the beach so attempting to get as slow a shutter speed as possible hand held to try and show the motion of the birds.
In October 1216, King John of England lost the crown jewels while leading a campaign against rebellious barons in East Anglia - I almost lost a lens cap but retracing my steps managed to track it down.
