With my hides rented out to Ashley from https://www.imbercourtphototraining.co.uk/, I fancied a few hours out with the camera so ventured out to Pagham harbor where a male Snow bunting had been seen for a week or so.
Snow bunting can be very hard to find especially on shingle, a bit like a needle in a haystack as they blend in so well and usually only flush when you step on them.
Luckily for me two guys were wandering around the spit and pointed me in the right direction and after 15 mins found it feeding on the tideline, eating seeds and such.
I had to wait in the car when I arrived as it was belting down and had a window to find it, and photograph it before another heavy downpour stopped play.
They can be very confiding and once found I just knelt down and followed it for a while before making a retreat.
Here are a few from the short session.
