Phone + Scope + WTP

I made quite a few visits to the WTP over winter. As per usual, there were crazy amounts of birds - and so lots of opportunities for phonescoping practice!

One morning cruising along the coast road inside Gate 8 the tide was just right and a little collection of birds had gathered in the shallow water.

There were quite a few Australian Pied Oystercatchers in this bunch and five of them obviously had some oystercatcher business to sort out.
