Remark : i was at Modhva beach near Mandvi,Kutch on 30/04/16 for Breeding Plumage of Waders.we reached at beach around 7am with my friends.read a full story at Ruddy Turnstone (Breeding Plumage) with video its a soothing morning after exhausted driving of 700km from Surat to Mandvi,Kutch.we had walked atleast 2km after parking our car at beach and feeling romantic sound of ocean,wind with birds.we did crawling for most of photos,it was amazing experience to crawl over sand with sea water and all credit to my friend Dilipsinh Chudasama aka DC. DC told us to move for terns and we were following them.Pankaj and DC were started crawling as they had sighted Little and Saunders's Tern.we did crawling for 200+mtr for some good shots.
Very Nice..
