Godwits.

It was gloriously wet early this morning and as I looked out across the bay I saw a flock of some 20 or so godwits, drilling for worms on the foreshore as the tide came in. I don't know if they were bar-tailed godwits, or black-tailed godwits; it was impossible to tell from a distance, with a bird-spotting book in one hand and a pair of binoculars in the other, and it didn't really matter, it was just wonderful to see them there.
