Having spent the weekend firmly indoors because of the Baltic conditions outside and doing my birding through the double glazing ,on the Saturday as I was thinking about lunch I heard the unmistakable sound of Buzzards calling just above the house looking out two buzzards were having a right set to but I managed a couple of belly shots before they disappeared into the sun.
Then on Monday as things had calmed down and was looking like a nice day I tramped down the pond (with wellies ) the pond was still frozen over and all the wildfowl was over the far side so I moved on to the flash which was also frozen ,a solitary Redshank and surprisingly the Turnstone had returned
( not often seen on Holywell ).
Retracing my steps a look in the hide produced this rather nice Little/Egret I think it was just testing the water temp ?
Passing the feeding station I cannot refuse a shot of these brilliant little birds.
Thanks for looking
STAY SAFE (things might be looking up?)
Joe.
Thank goodness that caaaad weather has finally gone !!! Lovely pics of the Buzzards Joe and i love the idea of the Little Egret checking the water temperature....... made me smile LOLOL. And you gotta capture a LTT when you get the chance, cracking little birds.
