Was so lucky to have one of these up in Barrow this year. What a thrill to photograph this tricky bird.

OGlenn, congratulations in getting such fantastic photo of this difficult bird. This is simply spectacular. Was this is very easy to find in Barrow?

Superb image Glenn. We were unable to find one of these that would lend itself to photos so I am very envious. I looked at your folio of Barrow images and was very impressed!

Great find Glenn, and of course well-photographed ! You may be the only person to have found one in Barrow this season. I just returned from there and didn't find one, but did have pretty nasty weather most of the time.
