I
have a few more pictures of the water rail to start today's post with.
This is the first time I have seen this bird since 2 winters back,
where one was hanging out at the reedbed hide.
Eventually,
I moved on - passing the Trumpeter swans again. They did not seem
impressed that I had stood nearby and ignored them for a while,
however and turned their heads away from me sulking.
I
departed from the reedbed hide/wildflower station and spotted a
blue tit investigating a nest box on the corner. It was either looking
for winter warmth or an early bird searching for a nesting site.
I
passed another robin board and progressed to the reedbed walkway.
I love the pictures of the Blue Tit investigating the nest box. He's looking around thinking, "Is this really for me?" :D
ReplyDeletethey do that - peep in numerous times - then go in a few times - looking around inside and outside - bit like us humans when we want to buy a new house, i suppose.
