Evening glow

Mute Swan at Broom GP, 27th September 2008. Lovely light on this bird.

Long gone

Found this shot take last year at Broom. Probably one of my best Swifts and I hadn't seen it until last week!

sTeWATby

I've been to the one in Orkney (but not the one in Shetland), and now we have our very own in Bedfordshire...

Maggie

Not a species I get many chances to photograph - this Magpie perched up nicely towards of my vismig session. It was getting slow by then anyway...

Misty thrushes

Blackbird (above) and two Song Thrushes taken in this mornings foggy vismig session on the Pinnacle. I particularly like the Song Thrushes shot.

Hueet!

A very confiding juvenile Redstart at Pegsdon Hills today.

Greenlander

Greenland Wheatear, South Ronaldsay, Orkney, August 2006. Awesome looking beasts!

Black-head

Black-headed Gull, Helston Boating Lake, Cornwall, October 2003. Surprisingly difficult to get really nice pictures of.

Ringer

Ring-billed Gull, Helston Boating Lake, Cornwall, October 2003. Twitched on our way on to Scilly for a week.

Tubenose

Fulmar, South Ronaldsay, Orkney Isles, August 2006. I found this bird a few hundred meters inland on a track, presumably a bit lost!
