I was there too, did you see the gulls stealing fish from the terns. It was amazing watching them. Nicely done with the egrets! Hi Ben, thanks!! Wow, what a small world! I met my meetup group there at 3pm and the fog was just rolling in as we arrived. I took the color shot within the first 10 minutes and then (as you are obviously aware) the whole place got shrouded in mist, so I decided to edit most of my other shots in B&W, but I didn't get many worthy of posting.

artyman Sleepless in Hampshire More info | Oct 19, 2009 11:22 | #7 They do usually wander along a shoreline, at least the little Egrets round here do, I've nevr seen them do this though with a shoal like that I expect he thought it was too good an opportunity to miss Art that takes you there. http://www.artyman.co.uk
