Couple of images from trip to East Anglia.
For those who don't know Minsmere is the place where the RSPB did one of its first conservation projects with the Avocet. If you go in the summer there are lots to be seen. When I went I didn't expect to see any as its a bit late in the season. However spotted a single bird, probably a juv:

Was also a few juv lapwings this one showing some of the colour in the wings in the sunshine
