MALE MARSH HARRIER

Few shots of male marsh harrier

NEARLY HAD A NASTY ACCIDENT

Nearly had a nasty accident is a understatement,after spending a few hours try to get a few more shots of the juv marsh harrier

i was walking back to my car and i must of scared the living daylights of this marsh harrier 2cy female i think as see was quartering the bend,she then lunged at me with both claws,i felt the breeze of her wings as she past millimetres above my head,it gave me the biggest scare of my life a few dogdy shots of the bird

try my best not to spook anymore birds

3 HOURS WAIT,IT GETTING BETTER

3 hour wait 40 fags later,only joking half a dozen,also breaking my next for a pee.thought i better not move as it was sitting in front off me,as upon turning up, i watched it being fed by the adult bird then went into hide,so i hid up and waited and waited......................did get a shelduck then these,had to be careful as not to spook the bird, so i let it quarter up and down, then took a few shots on silent mode..you guess it,still heard the camera,by chiddy i am off end of session

WET AND WINDY MORNING WHAT A MORNING

A wet morning i headed of to the peregrine site that people have told me about,i arrived with it lashing down,so sat down and waited and waited then the juv bird arrive and gave outstanding views,who said that june and july are the worst months to go birding and taking photos,i must admit i having a ball at the moment,my pc is jammed with unprocessed images so i got plenty to do on these wet mornings,thats a liar 798 photos later on a wet july headed home with a massive smile

JUV MARSH HARRIER
