Blue tits on a wet, dark evening.
7th May 2012:I had another try at photographing the blue tits this evening. By the time I arrived at the south end of the marsh, the light was fading fast. The sky was black, and it was raining. Still, I managed to get a few images, even if they are a bit grainy.
The house martins were there in force too, but they were conducting their speedy aerobatics over the standing water this time – making the ducks duck (I expect Dezra will have trouble getting her mind around this).
The coots have chicks! I haven’t seen any ducklings yet. I think the swans have a nest in a flooded wood next to the scrap yard. There was only one swan swimming about this evening.

Your perseverance is really paying off, Mike. I have a quirky passion for looking for “faces” in the most unusual places…did you happen to notice the face in the tree bark in the upper-right corner of your second photo (3300), looking down and over at your beautiful little bird?

Thanks, Gary. No, I didn’t notice the face. It might have been Vogel. 😉
