I
was still strolling along past Widewater Lagoon in the middle of
October when i caught a gull with the egret in the above photo. I
then spotted a pair of cormorants that were not diving for food, but
at rest.
Well,
maybe not so much at rest as sitting around actively preening!
I
moved along a little further and went closer towards the water by
entering the car park. This allowed me some better pictures of the
pair of preeners. A gull snuck into one shot I took. I actually
spotted 3 different types of seagull on this trip at the Lagoon.
Something
smaller and with a bit of yellow on brown darted into this bush - but I didn't think I succeeded in capturing it til the second shot proved I
had - it appears to be a warbler or reed bunting or...well, definitely
NOT a sparrow!
There are some interesting backdrops in these pictures: The white stone fence and what looks to be a deck of some kind with a bench on it.
ReplyDeleteits the backside of people's homes.some drop right to the water past a deck and others have huge gardens between house and water - depends on how far along the lagoon you are.
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice place to own a home.
ReplyDeleteyes but i bet it costs a bomb!
