Black-tailed Godwit and a Comma

Black-tailed Godwit, Limosa limosa
On Friday 15th I met Mark at Pagham Harbour where I saw a Black-tailed Godwit, a huge flock of Canada Geese, A Kestrel, a Kingfisher and a Comma. Afterwards I visited Arundel WWT and found a Kingfisher by the pond next to the Sand Martin hide.

This Kingfisher had been fishing from the railings. Unfortunately the sun was behind him and although I tried to creep past, he was having none of it and disappeared.
