Was it a waterail? Was it a coot?
Just a young teenage coot!
Before we left Warnham, we stopped for a coffee. We were being spied upon by bird-eye as we nattered and sipped!
A wood pigeon was munching grass and tree seed, and kept popping up behind the foliage.
Before we drove homeward, we strolled along to the mill. At the weir, we spotted a flutter...that landed. A grey wagtail.
...and some ducks.
The wagtail flew into one of the holes...to feed its young! It kept flying in with food and poking it into its offsprings' mouths then flying off for more...well, they did - for there were two of them. Alas, my attempts to get a shot of that failed.
Regular readers might know where our next trip is by this last shot.
That's a great shot of the peeking bird. At first I thought it would be Pidge.
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures of the waterfall and the dam. I'm not sure about the last shot, though. Those little guys from a long time ago? Budgies?
it was a Pidge! and yes its the Chichester budgies!
