A great white very nice Linda, I have seen a couple this year none that close. Another kingfisher Sounds like you got your steps in

Thanks SM, it really wasn't that close at all , thank goodness for my p950 zoom
Kingie always give a wee Toot toot hello
So many steps with ma wee legs I have had to rest the remainder of the day

Oooh, missed the cormorant And has the GWE got a fish in that last bunch of pics?

Always guaranteed a sunbathing cormorant in its favourite tree by the river. Aye the GWE got a fish but pics not great as was sooo far away

A nice set of photos once you'd tried every hide and gone back to where you started.

So I read this morning a Bittern was spotted at the Haugh yesterday...hmmm...well I had to go check it out!!!
Carpark almost empty...so me thinking no Bittern was spotted

Changed my usual route today and walked down through the woods to the Marsh Hide (its quicker)
Sky was blue , trees were raining and Jay's were very vocal...just my observations before arriving at the hide...woohoo it's empty

I see something white way in the distance...must leave immediately and get to other hide
Can you see it?


Nobody in the next hide woohoo...still looks far away


Jeezo why can't it just be close to the hide
A will walk fast round to the mound...yeah great idea Linda...forgetting the sun is shining right in that direction


A wee look in the river before a head back round to the hide
Toot tootand a sunbather


But a was determined to get a better pic of the Great White Egret, so after going back to the hide then back round to the mound yet again here's wit I ended up with...and a Little Egret was a bonus
A lovely selection Linda, bet you got you step count up!
