Wet and dry


Its hard to believe these are more than likely to be the same bird.


Holywell pond 

A couple of nice surprises this week with a Marsh Harrier (cream crown ) giving it the once over,its been seen a couple of times now.


Not the best of pics above..
A more secretive bird now living up to its reputation ,unlike Northumberland Park last year!.



Still nice to have around and keep an eye out for.

Thanks for looking
Stay safe

A quiet week on pond

 A very quiet week indeed with little or nothing in the way of waders ,this could be part of the reason why.

 

Plenty of fighting going off as well 


I was zoomed in to the limit with the above pics

Activity on the pond at present seems to centre around Lapwings and Geese
My best for the week was 2 Snipe and  1 Dunlin quite disappointing.

Unfortunately that carried on at home with this fella waiting for me !


Quiet at home  now.!!

Thanks for looking and stay safe.
