Bar-tailed Godwit, Limosa lapponica
Far Eastern Curlew :: Numenius madagascariensis
This is the non-breeding plumage of the Bar-tailed Godwit and is the main phase seen in Australia. The breeding plumage is darker and more rufous, with females duller than males.
Bar-tailed Godwits arrive in Australia each year in August from breeding grounds in the northern hemisphere. Tens of thousands of birds land in Australia's north-west and move around the coast of Australia, rather than across the land.
Reading up on these guys The distances they fly are amazing - one tracked on a journey of 11,000 k without stopping. One of the others with a transmitter stayed put, eminently sensible.
If you have Google Earth you can see an interactive map of their flight path.

It had rained all day. The clouds cleared, and this scene unfolded last fall in Bar Harbor, Maine. Right place, right time.

The metal bars being reinforced by ones of ice!
Was I scared? Of course, who knows what lurks in the dark (apart from Lant_70)? I looked over my shoulder a few times! :-) I was all alone after all!
It felt, relatively, warm in the tunnel, and since the mud only has a crust of ice on it, its my oppinion that there are probably no icicles in here! But since I didn't go with the intension of entering the tunnel I didn't have the equipment to check!
