Excellent and very clear image Roger, that old Shelduck does look a bit lonesome. I am a member of WWT and I thought Slimbridge was as far as I could get in a westerly direction. Steart Marshes is new to me.

What an interesting photographic document, great is your capture of the group of avocets (Recurvirostra avosetta) in the pond. I see that in the group of birds you captured in the photo there is also a common shelduck (Tadorna tadorna). Great job. CIAO, Gastone.
