Spent a little time at Stick Marsh waiting for 9 AM.
The Spoonbill rookery is still fairly active but on the finishing days, I think.
Finally got into TM Goodwin on the only day of the week (Thursday) that they allow vehicles to the Broadmoor Marsh Unit. Limited hours 9AM-4PM. They are certainly not set up for photographers.
I bet that it is much better earlier in the winter. I hope to get another trip there before the heat really sets in.
