this male Marsh Harrier flew right over my head...
...and the Sedge were still singing...
...but this Yellow Wagtail posed great on these wires...
...and last of all a Mistle Thrush posed well on this field.
A small colony of Little Terns were nesting on the beach...
...and get very agresive to intruders
...and great to get in flight...
...but some fight back, this Ringed Plover has nested in the middle of the colony...
the Swallows posed well...
...and I had my first views of a Dartford Warbler
who posed well for a second on this gorse bush...
this Yellowhamer sand well this tree...
a juvenille Chaffinch was very approachable...
a Robin was singing well...
...with Greenfinch on the ground feeding on some seed...
also my first decent shot of a Magpie
...and this Chaffinch was feeding...
...a male Sparrowhawk flew by
and the Marsh Harriers performed well
the Marsh Harriers were hunting
this Heron was feeding on Coot chicks
There were a few Gadwell around
and Mallards were in and out.
loads of Meadow Pipits on the posts at Salthouse...
with a nosy Stoat keeping an eye on things...
the Sedge Warblers were singing well again...
and a Yellowhammer showing quite well...
a Northern Wheatear sat on the posts as well...
while a Skylark collected grubs from the floor...
my favorite this week was this Kestrel with a great sky blue background.
Then found a couple of Goldcrest that posed well
and another Song Thrush was searching for worms
a Chiffchaff sang well
and a great summer plumage Dabchick
and a male Bearded Tit posed well.
and this Lapwing showed well.
