A Wading Wader

The Black-Tailed Godwit – Limosa limosa – is a wader (as can be seen here) which is a protected bird in the UK with just 53 breeding pairs, the remainder are wintering birds from Iceland. Their normal diet is insects, snails and worms but they will also eat beetles, grasshoppers and other small insects and some plants during the breeding season. This one was seen searching for food at Martin Mere Wetlands.
