Westgate park

Here are some pics from Westgate park under the Wesgate bridge. Sure it's noisy and you can see strange people there, but for birding this place is wonderful. Not all photos are great, but they are all from the same visit :)

I just love the first two, the light is brilliant. In one word, “Art”

We have been there a few times, but it’s best to go during the week, less people=more birds.

Some very nice artistic flair there Laurius. It's amazing what can be found midst the hubub.

By the way, unless I'm mistaken, I think your hooded plover is a black-fronted dotterel.

Thanks. You are right Woko. Don't know why I thought it was hooded plover :)
