My
next excursion was a solo run to Chichester & Bognor and one of
the first things I did - in case it rained later on - was grab a
coffee and head for the canal. I had not walked more than a few
hundred meters before my camera came out to grab shot of the
cormorants.
There
was one on the jetty and another further along in the canal-side
vegetation. Both were busy searching for food - though the first
spotted me and glanced my way as well as into the water. The second
was too busy preening and fishing.
This
piece of artwork has iron birds depicted in the wingos of a
butterfly. I also managed to capture a coot in the water beyond. This
coot and pair of mallards must have thought I had food - as they came
over to see me - sorry guys, I had a camera and that's not edible!
An
entourage of coots had the same idea not much further along. She has
food for US, they thought - alas, little pink clickable boxes are not
lunch, you guys! That's right mate - food's thattaways...
Finaly
for today, HERE is a video of the birds in the next stretch - mostly
of the coots.
That iron butterfly is pretty impressive. :D
