It wasn't hard to find them. A lifer for me! _________________ Deon van der Heever Maple Ridge, BC http://www.flickr.com/photos/deonvanderheever/

They ranged from here to several hundred metres further along the dyke sometimes crossing over to the marsh side perching on bushes. Great views. _________________ Larry Cowan Pitt Meadows
