Black Tailed Godwit

The Black-tailed godwit breeds in wet grasslands, and winters on coastal estuaries and marshes, and at inland shallow waters. A sociable bird, it forms large flocks when feeding, probing the mud with its bill for invertebrate-prey. This Black Tailed Godwit image was taken at Leysdown, Kent where it was flying in to join a large flock.
