Unusual title, lovely shot

Perhaps you should identify the godwit for those of us who can't spot it.

Great shot, I love the change in tones but would crop most of the bottom off as it is a bit distracting in my eyes.

Hi Mike the top 1/2 are godwits & the bottom 1/2 is a mix of godwit,knot,dunlin,sanderling.

It's that flocking time of year for sure, soon it will be spring then it'll be that other time of year.

Nice one
