Beautiful shots! The last photo would look really good framed.

Nice photos. Good variety of birds.
Great shots Shorty! I particularly love the lighting in the native hen shot, really nice. It looks like you had a great time :)
Thanks for sharing!
Amazing photos Shorty!

All fantastic photos.
I like the shelduck landing with the reflections, and the delicate touch of the avocet on the water in the first one - and I like all the others too!
Almost missed these. Great work. Particularly like the Red-necked Avocet in flight.

Nice photos, would be 3 new ticks for me. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks everyone, it is a great place to visit and not too far to drive to for me.
Devster, that's 9 ticks for you so far, think you might have to go there :)
