Burdon Moor

 A few images from Burdon Moor a couple of weeks ago.

Whinchat.





Mistle Thrush. They were feeding on berries when I first saw them but flew up onto the pole.



A dog walker had let his dog off the lead in one of the fields and it startled these deer which are still watching dog.

Burdon Moor

 At the end of last month my wife and I had a walk around Burdon Moor as Whinchats had been seen. There was a family group of Stonechats flying around and as one bird was silhouetted against the sky it wasn’t until I got the images on the computer that I realised I had photographed a Whinchat.
