I am getting a bit obsessed by this bird, now into its' second week at the small fishing pits in the village of Maxey in Cambridgeshire. The bird shows no signs of moving on (famous last words) and has been seen catching plenty of fish, seemingly happy in its' current residence. I live in hope for an absolutely 'stonking' photo, but until then, I leave you with the above shot and the one below.
Couple of good shots in the sun John. A tad envious :-)
ReplyDeleteThe one we had at my local lake a couple of years ago stayed for quite a few weeks.
Thanks Keith!
DeleteWe have had some sun recently, just not that much of it! This is the first or second (depending on your point of view) in our area for 10 years.

Pretty nice photos anyway, John. Lets hope he stays and poses for a bit longer!
ReplyDeleteThanks John!
DeleteHe is still there as of today and showing no signs of moving on! I cross fingers!

Whoever heard of an obsessive bird-watcher? I think these pictures are definitely an improvement on the previous ones.

Thanks Bazza, I will take that as constructive criticism! ;)
DeleteI don't know what you mean about obsessive birdwatchers!

Both great shots! Lovely lighting :) I know I would be obsessed with them if they were around my neck of the woods!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lou Mary! It's still there as I write! I must try and stay away, I will get a reputation!
