Bearded Tits at RSPB Lakenheath

A beautiful sunny day for a walk at Lakenheath reserve. Definite lack of birds - these were the only species that we saw but such a delight to watch this group of Bearded Tits  feeding in the reeds. I couldn't stay long but others in our CCC group got some great shots when one perched on a single tall reed!

Norfolk Tour - Cley NNT Reserve

Overcast misty conditions at Cley weren't ideal for portraits but added to the atmosphere of the reserve. Two favourite species, Reed Bunting (with damselfly) and Bearded Reedling, performed well on the East Bank  while Spoonbills, Sand Martins, Avocets, Redshanks, Shovellers and Pochard  showed well on the marshes.

Norfolk Tour - Pensthorpe

A big change in the weather giving cloudy and cold conditions didn't spoil our day at Pensthorpe Natural Park. We are about a month too early for the gardens and meadows to be flourishing but the birds performed well with the usual suspects - Bearded Tits, Turtle Dove and Ruff putting on a good display in the captive area and lots of activity at the Woodland Hide and the Scrape

Pensthorpe Natural Park

Many of the species in the wader aviary at Pensthorpe are obviously breeding well. Here a few portraits before the action starts.There are large flocks of Bearded tits, Ruffs/Reeves, Black-winged Stilts and Avocets. Also photographed Redshank and Black-tailed Godwits. Light was not great most of the morning so 3200 iso and these are jpeg files.

After the Rain at Pensthorpe


 Unfortunately it rained at Pensthorpe until the last hour but then all the birds were keen to have a wash and brush up to get the waterproofing back on their feathers. There were young Bearded tits in the aviary with their black eye markings. Last image to remind me not to use the electronic shutter!
