Another visit to Filey Brigg to try and capture some shots of the Long Tailed Ducks that have been feeding just off the brigg in recent days. They have been mixed in with the huge flock of Common Scoter which have also been feeding off the brigg end. Lots of wader species on the brigg with Oystercatcher, Knot, Dunlin, Purple Sandpiper, Ringed Plover, Redshank and Turnstone all present.

Pretty stunning images of the Long-tailed Ducks - I couldn't get anywhere near them.

Thanks Dave, they were showing fairly close but the light was terrible.
