As the temperature dropped to near freezing before the first serious threat of snowfall this winter I went back to the Lower Halstow walk I did with Geoff Orton of the the Kent Wildlife Trust back in the late autumn of 2011. There were many dog-walkers, but still plenty of birds out on the mud, with quite a few Dunlin, Calidris alpina, fairly close in.
The use of quick fix enhancement really raises the contrast on these pictures, which look very muddy without it! You can see the eye stripe on some of the Dunlin, but perhaps not so easily in this enhanced picture.
