One
last shot of the coot family before I left the cafe break and went
around a second time, this time inclusive of a boat trip. I stopped
off at the herb house to check on the swallows, seeing as I had failed
to spot any in the other two nesting spots this week. These were the
ones I got the best shots of on my last trip. This time, I only saw one of
the birds - standing on the roof corner of the herb hut.
Next,
I trotted round to the woodland hide again to capture some more finch
shots to share.
This
fellow would not give me a decent picture, as it would not stay still
long enough for the camera focus to take effect, but did make an
interesting collection, before staring and leaving.
That's an interesting picture of the swallow. What's the herb house? It looks like he's sitting on a big net.
ReplyDeleteDid you say you took a boat trip?
ReplyDeletethe herb house is a hut where they showcase basic info on a few wildflowers used as herbal remedies etc - a thatched hut sort of thing with dried flowers and info boards. (I went there today actually to research a garden weed) yes they have a short boat ride in the reeds where a guide talks about nature and you can learn a lot!
ReplyDeleteNice. Did you get pictures of the boat ride?
ReplyDeleteno i was too absorbed by the ride....but i will sometime, when i go again!
