Curlew

Ran a 5 K along the front at Lytham this morning with Park View running group. It was hard work as a good part of it involved running head-on into the wind. Our group organizer admitted she had made a mistake when planning the route, but then tried to say that it was okay because it made for good resistance training. 

My sister visited this afternoon, and we headed off to Newton Marsh in the hope of getting some photographs, but we were rained off. We changed plan and went back to the beach at Lytham St Annes where I managed to get this shot of a curlew.
