Shelduck 5000+
Dunlin 2000+
Black-tailed godwit 1500+
Curlew 300+
Incredible scenes on Frodsham Score, I don't think I've ever seen so many shelduck. Everything is distant here, and a scope is essential, but it was great seeing the ruddy shelduck on the estuary with such a huge flock of common shelduck, really looking like genuine wild birds. It's like when you see a snow goose with 10,000 pink-feet, it looks wilder than when it's with Canadas!
You can see the ruddy shelduck just right of centre. If they were 300m away on no.6 tank, here they must have been more like 1.5km!
