Great shots, I know the area well having lived in west cumbria most of my life. The RSPB site nearby has some fabulous winter visitors. Last time I was there saw a flock of at least 400 redshanks and many other waders too many to mention including some eider ducks. Its a great winter birding spot. Once again great pics.

Cheers malcy and thanks for looking,the beach on Friday was alive with birds,thousands of them.I was on the beach but could,nt get close enough before the birds got scared and flew off.I did'nt know there was an RSPB site nearby,so the next time i visit my daughter who lives in The Green near Millom i'll give it a visit. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Hi Jim - you could be right about the gull - a birder friend of mine says this shot http://www.panoramio.com/photo/24131102 is such a bird :-)
