The little Egret and Sandpipers

[Bevb]

The sun was out today, well on and off, so off down to the river for a long walk with the dogs and camera, the little Egret was about, along with the Buntings and skylarks and on the way back i caught a flock of Common Sandpipers leaving with the tide, all were at quite a distance so the 100-400 was wide open, but i felt re-fuelled as i felt spring in the air.

Alas, the manual focus was tried, but i cheated and reverted back to AV! but i will be back practising that tomorrow. Promise.
