Lapwing
I have not had much new to post recently, but here is a lapwing from a recent outing to Elmley. It is good to see them getting into their summer finery. Hopefully spring will soon be here, but it is noticeably absent today!

I do have the full reflection, but as there is that bit of mud in the foreground, that goes straight through it, I decided to cut it out.

Regards,

David
