I started at Motney Hill and walked halfway to Bloors. The tide was up so not much doing so I decided to drive up to the main entrance. On the way back to the car i spotted what I thought were Gulls frying around. As I got closer I manage to frame them and found that it was a colony of Lapwings. I manage a few pictures but at that time they were too far away.
As I walked donw the path and got level with them they came into focus.
Lapwings |
Quite a large colony |
When I got home I found these on a picture
Little Egrets |
Sorry about the focus but I was focusing on the Lapwings at the time and was not really taking any notice of them.
In the bay |
I then headed off to the main part of the park. Where I found A friend of mine with the RSPB stand showing anybody who would listen about the birds and showing them how to use a telescope. I left him to it and wandered off.
Hear I come |
I then set off for the pond which has not had much in it this year.
Moorhen |
He was hiding from me.
Of course you can't visit Riverside without taking a shot of that lovely PS and the clouds
