Saturday 14th January a.m.
As the sun got brighter I made my way the short distance over to Park Dam where there were nine
Goosanders, 3
Cormorants, 3
Little Grebes, 1
Gt C. Grebe and 60
Canadas which were grazing in the field.There were also
BH and
Common Gulls among the other more common species, one bird stood out which I thought was a
Teal it was at full range of the bins so I wasn't 100% sure, the picture I took of it later confirmed my original ID of a male Teal.

Nice Grebe shots Nigel.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dave the GCG was very obliging but hard work with the Little Grebe which kept its distance.
ReplyDeleteVery nice blog. I really liked the Grebe photos as well, but the BH Gulls are my favorite.

Thanks Jessi good to hear from you that you enjoy the blog, the Grebes will be getting their summer plumage soon so will look even better.Always a good chance of getting some flight shots of BH Gulls when someone decides to throw them bread as they all take to the air to get to the bread first.Regards Nigel.
