Its Knot What One'd Think

Red Knot are not uncommon. If I look at my CAWOS 2010 Report they're described as 'very common'. This does not detract from their attractivness to the photographer, in fact the sheer numbers present on the coast present an opportunity for us to get creative and attempt to capture and convey the sheer mass of birds present. As it goes, the Wirral is one of the best places I know for these birds and its no secret, there are often many people watching them roosting. At low tide this is a different story! A gruelling 8 hours logged over both states of thge tide last year allowed me to capture these most wonderful birds at both rest and play...

Heads up lads...
