Green Heron @ West Hythe

Very Photogenic.

Gold on Gold

A nice evening glow this evening along Wood Lane.

Pterodactyl

Fond memories from this time last year.

New Arrivals

Willington was alive with new birds this morning feeding along the river valley.

Wood Lane - after the fog

Male Stonechat still frequenting Wood Lane and no less that eleven Jay sightings this morning with birds all heading down the hill from Sheerhatch.

Radde's @ Shingle Street

One of the more challenging species I have attempted to photograph and after only fleeting glances and faint calls from the bird at Burnham Overy on Friday, I decided to try again, this time at Shingle Street in Suffolk. Poor images but a good bird to see.

Burnham Overy Dunes

Superb late afternoon spent around Burnham Overy dunes where some of the migrants seemed very tame. The Radde's Warbler was heard and showed very briefly but needs to take some lessons from these two posers.

Wryneck @ Rainham

Grafham Pools

I had these all to myself this evening.

You're Avin a Larf

Honey Buzzards over the garden this afternoon........................

Dotterel @ Languard

If only all birds were as confiding as this one.

Sentinal

Patiently waiting in view of the sheep field this evening for the swallows and starlings to come into roost at the settling lagoon.

Small Tortoiseshell

These have been scarce all year but in the past day or two there has been quite a few emerge near the pumping station in Willington.

I Know, I Know !

Yes I know the picture is rubbish but I still think it's a HB !! Two south over Willington at 3:15 this afternoon but very high.

Looking for Migrants

I spent some time at Willington GP at the weekend trying to connect with a fly-over Osprey or Honey Buzzard but had to make do with these old kites !

Yikes !

Can't say I've seen anything like this before. Taken by Sharon earlier in the year and just retreived from the point-and-shoot.
