Waiting For Godwit

Dateline: 30 June 2024

Taking a break from July 4th coverage to return to the previous Sunday afternoon at Gull Point, with great/rare sightings of both Marbled Godwit (a BirdingPI.com ‘first ever’ at this location) & beautiful Tricolored Heron. All shots long distance @ 400mm from the observation platforms.

Finally, the Marbled Godwit took flight, seemingly departing Gull Point for points south:

Heading south?

According to reports, previous day there might have been as many as 4+ Marbled Godwits at Gull Point (e.g., after the heavy rain), but it was great to see even one, as here.
