Hayle Estuary birding

A wander around the RSPB reserve and the estuary...

Nice to have good views of both a Kingfisher and Spoonbill, even if the Kingfisher, when it came closest, sat behind a branch and the Spoonbill kept its bill mainly in the water! A Black-throated Diver was unexpected and we had good close views of Teal, Wigeon and Curlew...It was quite dark and I susect there was a layer of salt on the camera, despite cleaning, so the photos aren't the clearest.
