Black tailed Godwits

At the end of April, I made a visit to Burton Mere on the Wirral. There were a few different waders about, but probably the most striking and colourful were the Black-tailed Godwits. Many were in their summer breeding plumage, or close to it, and when they were huddled together they looked superb.


As good as they look individually, they certainly look better in a group.

  1. Hi Adam, I loved seeing a Black-tailed Godwit only having seen a Bar-tail Godwit once in my life while living in Tanzania, East Africa. And them huddled in a group, certainly makes an impression. Greetings. Jo
