A went out earlier than normal today in the hope of getting better light and consequently better shots of the Cettis. The light wasn’t as good as I hoped but I almost got that “killer” shot of my intended quarry. Very satisfying because I had followed a plan and waited for around 2 hours for the shot which does show the cocked tail stance very nicely, what a shame the head is obscured.
As I drove back things were quiet, not many people about with the weather a bit on the cold side for the time of year. This Heron was right alongside the road and I used the car as a hide to get a few hand held shots….. shame I missed his legs off the shot! Breakfast and coffee quaffed, I am back out again for a few hours. My conscience is clear because I am working late afternoon and evening, being self employed it’s up to me what I do and when ………….. what a life I lead, couldn’t be sweeter!!!!
Nearly forgot this image which is well worth sharing. It is a male Reed Bunting. I took it yesterday but forgot to post it.
