Birding Northern France Day 2 (part 2) 19th May

At Marquenterre we arrived at the Heronry - amazed with the number of birds nesting in the fir trees. The camera does not do justice to this amazing sight.

White Storks, Spoonbills, Little and Cattle Egrets, plus Grey Herons nesting together

Arriving back at the car park we walked amoungst the pines, Christine played her tape of Crested Tit and immediately one responded adding another new bird to my list.

Time to head back to the tunnel, a great weekend that went so quick, great company, good birds, can't wait for next time.
