These Far Eastern Curlews were simply too far out on the sandbank  for any good shots.

    Hi Madi

    Well done for getting to grips with waders! Those curlews look like Eurasian - too pale to be Far Eastern. Check the diffs here: http://digdeep1962.blogspot.com/2011/01/23-january-2011-sarawak-waterbird_27.html
