| | | Avocets. When I was a youngster the bird I always wanted to see was an Avocet.....probably because it was the bird used by the RSPB......as a child I never imagined I would ever see one.
And now they are relatively common in some places around the country.......but I still get a thrill out of seeing them.
These images were taken at RSPB Marshside,Lancs a few weeks ago.. |

| | | Re: Avocets. We rather like one of our photos of an avocet, taken at the London Wetland Centre in 2006 - so I turned it into a jigsaw puzzle. If you'd like to try it, there's a link at the end of the index on our Home Page. |
