I bit the bullet…

…last Friday and went down to Saltlholme for the Merlin. In the seven hours I was there, it showed only once and I missed the images I wanted. A Marsh Harrier showed really well so I filled my boots, so to speak, taking pictures of it.

I have seen Merlin in the past but these are the first images I have of this cracking bird.




Marsh Harrier.


I though the Merlin was supposed to chase Dragonflies LOL.








Black-tailed Godwit






A Kingfisher showed briefly.

Someone in the hide was bemoaning the use of 500mm lenses with converters attached however; I don’t think these images of a Migrant Hawker taken with that set up are that bad.
