I've had a bit of feedback about the nice 'reflections' couldn't help taking some more!
A Dunlin was keeping the Curlew Sandpipers company, he will have to grow his legs a little bit to try and and keep up with them!
Shallower water, that's what is needed...
A juvenile Water Rail was creeping about in the nearby reeds, occasionally flitting across in front of me and lingering at the edge once or twice.....
A chance to see evolution in progress too as the local Mallards take the first steps from being 'dabblers' to seed feeders. In a short while (well, a few tens of thousand years or so) we'll see this strain adapted with longer necks and bills adapted for crushing seed?
Did I catch the moment it all began? It just takes one.....
Then another.....
And another.....
Apologies for delays in posting at present, I try and keep everying moving in chronological order but the 'talk season' is upon me and it gets a bit frantic....
