Black-tailed Godwit

Limosa limosa

Description:

A long-legged wader with a long, thin bill. There are several of these birds living along the estuary by my flat, they appeared over winter (these birds often spend winter in the UK) and over time have got used to humans. I was able to get a much closer, much clearer shot of it today.

Habitat:

Estuaries and coastal lagoons
