The one thing about this afternoon it that it was 1300 and a lot of the bird were a sleep with their head in the wing. On walking the path the first I came across were a whole flock of Mallards fast asleep.

I spent an hour there and it was well worth it.
As low water it about 1430 tomorrow I may try a trip out to Horrid Hill
Thanks for looking.
I love reading your blog Trev,and Mike's,very relaxing to see the pictures of birds and countryside views.... makes me feel good... much nicer than the news and all the nasty stuff in the world! Good stuff that man!! ( as Mr Scott would say!)

I agree with Eileen, Trev ! I would never see these scenes normally, so you give me that opportunity.....thank you !
ReplyDeleteMaybe some close up fauna would be lovely too as your shots are so good !

Well thank you both, I will try to do that Chris but most wild flowers have died off but there are loads of berries of different colours that I have seen. I will see what I can do this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteWell done again Trev.
ReplyDeleteI will have to take the Nikon out next time and blow the cobwebs off it.
I agree with Eileen forget about all the doom and gloom in the world, we cant do any thing about it anyway.
too true Mike.
ReplyDeleteYup get the Nikon out and get clicking away.
