The Redshank is a nice little wading bird that does breed in  the UK but we also have birds from the continent wintering here on the Exe Estuary. They are an aptly named bird with bright red legs as well as a black ended red beak which is used to probe in to the mud and turf for worms. Their most attractive feature is the white striped tail.

Here’s a few more photographs of birds that I photographed yesterday.
