A early evening visit to West Acre after work, a bit of sunshine and the
Green Sandpipers were obliging....some even had reflections....as did I sat in the hide, on my own as usual, (too expensive to hire the key remember) watching three
Green Sandpipers fly around the pool. Then a male
Redstart being mobbed by a clump (or whatever the collective name is for them) of
Chiffchaffs. As I pondered, I snapped away at these lovely waders. So here some pics of the
Green Sands of West Acre......
This pool has had these birds, plus three others, for many months now - fantastic and how long will they stay ? It's a great feeling to open the flap of the hide and see these birds. Other usual suspects were there including a
Moorhen having a dip
then looking a bit more like a real
Moorhen, oh yes and reflecting...
on leaving I was once again treated to a
Hobby attack. Again too quick but shot directly into the sun so this pic over exposed in order to just see his "red trousers" . I am considering entering this for the worst photograph of a
Hobby ever taken, and if that doesn't win then I'll go for worst
Swallow pic !
Remember, stay away from West Acre !!!
