Author: SashaQ - happysad - U9936370

Here's a little Entry about a family of birds that I enjoy studying whenever I get the chance.

Hello Sasha Q, I enjoyed this entry, well done, think there is a photo of wading Godwits in the POST archive. I think its still in the archives. If they still have it the reference is DSCF7794.

I would be pleased it you could use it

Thanks bob!

I had a look for your photo, but wasn't able to find it, sorry. They are beautiful birds

Where can they be posted so you can see them cant E-male them


And then you can have a try to work out where they were taken

Can you put them on flickr?

A very good Entry.

Another good entry. Though I think I would have difficulty telling the difference between Black-Tailed and Bar-Tailed Godwit!

Thank you

Yes, there are more differences between those two types, but to an untrained eye the differences are rather subtle! I'm learning slowly but haven't seen many bar tailed godwits this year to do a proper side by side comparison! December/January should be a good time, though, so I'll keep looking out for them

Bob, was the photo one of the ones here: A87920779

No but it was sent to the H2G2 Post team marked for your attention ref Godwits
Let me know when you get it

PS The location of the photo is Titchfield Haven

I've got the

Yes, thanks bob! It is a great photo of two young-ish Black Tailed Godwits that will look superb on the Entry - Titchfield Haven is a great place to see these birds indeed
