Wonderful Sunny Day!

At last a beautiful day yesterday and one which was a delight to be walking out in the countryside. At first a quick look to see if the Waxwings were hanging around the supermarket though – and they were!

Then on to Belhus Woods. Some of the birds I was hoping to photograph had moved on in recent weeks but I had my best view of a Great Spotted Woodpecker and some other favourites obliged and gave me a chance to experiment a bit.

From here went for a walk by the Thames and adjacent marshes at East Tilbury. I hoped to see some owls in the fading light but that was too much to expect really on such a good day! There was one surprising low flight overhead however!

  1. Aye aye, loads of nice stuff!!! Cool to see different subspecies of the Long-tailed Tit, the Great Spotted Woodpecker and the Blue Tit from the ones we have in Scandinavia 🙂
