Observation details
The Golden Plovers were, as always, extremely difficult to get anywhere near... but then, as I've seen before at Orielton, they didn't know what to think when I approached from the water with the rising tide; evidently, they're not programmed well for threats from the sea!! I was also delighted to photograph one bird in particular that was coming into a beautifully black-dappled approximation of its breeding best; nothing is sightlier amongst the Waders than a Golden Plover at its best!!
