Another day, another bird hide. Loads of flamingos, avocets, three-banded plovers, Kilitz’s plovers, whimbrels, greenshanks, African oystercatchers, even in the Southern winter.

@withoutaleaf has some time off after her last job. So we went down to the gloomy West Coast National Park. Despite the weather, time well spent. Fascinating scenes on the mudflats.
