Great Day at Minsmere and Upper Common Hollesley


Well today was 100% better than yesterday, first I travelled to Minsmere it was sunny but cold.

Marsh Harrier



Treecreeper
Lucky to spot this little fella

LongTailed Tit
Lapwing
The on to Upper Common Hollesley to see if the Crossbills were showing.
What a difference a week makes, the Crossbills are there, but now very shy.
This one was very high in a tall tree, singing for a mate!
This next picture is of three BlueTits trying to break through the ice, I think its makes a Great Picture
Presenting Blue Tits on Ice
(I broke the ice for them after this)
Goldcrests

Redpoll turned up late in far distance
Then just as I was leaving 30 Waxwings turned up they flew into a oak tree in the large open space.
Stretching to a bite to eat!!!
Nearly over did it!!


All in all not a bad day!!!

Poor day at Upper Common Hollesley

Lovely Sunny afternoon but cold,
Goldcrest was my sharpest picture of the day
Crossbills came late and high in the trees
These next two photo's would have been great if they were sharper, they were at the top of a tall tree, They are pair cuddling!!!
Meadow Pipit's very hard to get close to, spook very easily
Female Stonechat in to the sun
Goldfinches were showing well
After all the cracking shots last week, still I can't be lucky everyday!!!
