But then swiftly wandering here and there.....
Flycatching!

Plus a worm or two....
The light was simply awesome for most of the time....
I can do without a drink :-)

Looking spectacular whilst wading in the clear still water.....
There was potential for some nice reflections and I wasn't to be disappointed!
More of these, a wing flap or two and some mysterious 'white stuff' coming soon in part 2`.....
