Three wading birds were hanging out in the Spoonie Tree on Sunday.

They took turns on the various branches, occasionally routing one of the others off the tree.

They would quickly return and then manage to line themselves up with the one branch left sticking out towards me.

The water was high in the pond and only the longer legged Great Egret took a turn in the water.
