Friday 28th part 1

Out on Friday morning and a canny morning it was with five new birds for the year.

Little Egret. In this sequence of images, I am not sure if this is a fight or a mating attempt going wrong. One of the Egrets (H J on leg rings) appears to attack or mate with the other one.


For a while, it seems to have the upper hand (if it is an attack)



Then the other one turns the tables…

…and H J flies off

Gadwall and Shoveler

The Gadwall got a little too close so the Shoveler left

Coloured ringed Avocet

Another coloured ringed Avocet

A very showy Grasshopper Warbler


A couple of very dodgy record shots of a Green-winged Teal
