Lapwing

Day 175 - I took this picture at Elmley Nature Reserve, Isle of Sheppey, such a lovely place to visit with lots to see and take photos of, I plan to keep nipping back there as it's only 10 minutes away from me.
What lovely colours! Have never seen one of these close up before

@fbailey @gemmabrowne @anniesue @gardenfolk @sangwann @chrisiow Thank you everyone for your comments and your 'fav'
I never seen one up close before now, as you drive into the nature reserve there is a long winding road which leads to the car park. As you have to drive slow and are allowed to stop (but not get out of the car) the birds don't seem too afraid of the cars so are quite willing to pose for the odd picture! :)
