Single Curlew wading in the shallow water

At the Inn River there are most of the time several birds resting and wading through the shallow water at the water retentions before the water power plants. Due to the water retention the river gets very broad on some spots and can overflow several meaddows and build up a lot of slick land for birds to find food. I often visit such a place and there are always some interesting birds to see there. One of the birds that can be seen there often is the european Curlew and they can be there in really big flocks. But sometimes there are only a few there.
