Juv Spoonbill at Cornwall's hottest site

Marazion once again pulls in another rarity this weekend. Spoonbill is not a BB rare, so I say rarity simply because there is precious little else in the county to see at the moment. Marazion does seem to be the place this autumn though...the highlights (so far) being an impressive Citrine Wagtail, Grey-headed Wagtail, Black Kite, Bittern, Baird's Sandpiper, Glossy Ibis and this juv Spoonbill.






EXIF Detail: Aperture F/7.1 Shutter speed 1/500s. Exposure: -0.7EV ISO 800. Focal length 600mm.

  2. As per usual excellent images, I managed a mediocre shot early in the morning. Marazion seems to be the centre of the universe this Autumn.

  3. Super selection of photos - not often I can say I was there as well, a first for me, always missed them before. The light & the drizzle was doing me no favours with my camera, but everyone else has superb shots of a very obliging bird ! Sue

  4. Great shots as usual Steve, I would argue about Marazion being the hottest site though
