            Thanks guys

            did you get him skimming???
            When we were there 18 months ago there were flocks of them and got lots of skimming shots but this time far fewer and none were skimming

                  An amazing bird Stan and that is one very strange beak.

                    That is one very strange beak.
                    It is with the lower part longer than the upper which enables them to scoop up the food as they skim the waters surface. It's quite an amazing thing to watch
