English (UK)   Not much doing this week  -  Categories: Bird Images (posts)  -  @ 05:51:39 pm

I have not had too much luck this week as I only managed to get out for an hour in total. Here's a couple of pictures I managed to get.

I watched about 5 grey herons land in the scrub. Being inquisitive and having nothing else to do, I followed with my 4X4. I got as near as I could to where they landed and had to get out on foot. After about twenty yards, I came upon a pool that I'd never noticed before, unfortunately I made too much noise as there was a lot of foliage hiding the pool. These stilts spooked and all I could manage was this shot. The focal settings etc. were all wrong for a flight shot but here's the result. I think this location could be a place to stake out in the future.


Just at dusk I spotted two male stonechats. The sun was behind the birds and it was almost dark so I took this picture in desperation. It's turned out to be a not too bad silhouette.
