Mikepércs: Nesting Stilts

Last time I moved the hide closer to the bank, where some vegetation started to grow on the wet ground. I'm giving a try here today hoping to catch sight of the avocets' new generation.
The black-winged stilt is still sitting on its nest, while its mate is feeding or trying to bundle off the birds that appear in the territory. The little ringed plovers however are allowed to search nearby, but the landing lapwings and spotted redshanks can stay only for a few seconds. This proves to be enough for a few shots:

Three black-headed gulls are landing too, but they can't stay either, the defence is working well.
So, there aren't many themes, the avocets' nest is already empty, they are gone. Looking out a little backwards I discover another stilt nest with the bird sitting on its eggs. It's only a few meters from the hide:
