There was a bit of breeze Happyhare but the main problem was the cold....it was absolutely bitter!

:wow: well done on getting the kingfisher pictures. I have never seen one sitting still yet!
Seen a colourful blur once or twice when fishing on the river Severn when I was a nipper :girlygiggle:
Beautiful swans and feed station visitors too :cool:

Thanks everyone.

We were really hacked off when it first alighted on that closest post because the light conditions were awful and every photo came out blurred or smudged.

The Kingfisher is excellent, very jealous.

Thanks Dave.

It was just a pity that the light was atrocious because if it wasn't for that i'm sure the photos would have been crystal clear and would have cropped down extremely well...i was not happy i can tell you because the second the Kingfisher flew the light improved dramatically!

Just had a huge catch up here Dave. A fantastic selection of photos :clap3: and a great variety of species :cool2: .

I am also still waiting to see a Brambling ... they seem to prefer the north east to Bucks :sad:

Edit: Just looked at one of LGRE's blogs ... so make that the north east and Herts (TRING to be precise) :ahh:

Thanks Gill.

There appears to be more Brambling about this year than the previous few years so you should have a good chance hopefully.
