Kennedy says these birds are recorded from Aug 23 to Jun 17, but I got this photo just yesterday, Aug. 15th at Jugan Fishponds. In fact, I think there's a colony breeding in the area all year. Common Redshank (Tringa totanus) EOS 5D Mark II; 0.002 sec (1/500); f/5.6; 400 mm + 1.4TC; ISO 640; Handheld with support:  |

Thank you guys. It seems that Jugan actually has a small population of Redshanks that stay there almost year round. I'll make it a point to check on them once migration is over to confirm my hunch.

Nice Bobby! The leftmost redshank looks like it sprinted to make it to the frame. |

Mighty fine details on this shot, Tukayo! I hope your hunch is correct so that we can see these birds any time of the year.
