| Lesser Yellowlegs The ultimate pose except for tibia deep water...  On 31st the bird stayed out in the middle of Freshmarsh but is still identifiable on leg colour through the heat haze. |

Ian's excellent field sketch and notes from 17th.
The Yellowlegs performed well and gave us the ideal rare bird field sketching session.
Performance under pressure from a busy Island Hide, failure was not an option...

Ian's considered studio pencil sketch of the bird.
At one with his subject following great dedication.
Next we invade Poland with colour.
