A couple of weeks back we visited Ham Wall on the Somerset levels hoping to see the River Warbler which had been showing well for over a week, where it had been faithful to the same area , luckily close to a footpath , it really wasn't difficult locating the bird as a few birders /photographers had gathered and it was in full voice, and showing itself off to all onlookers. I didn't expect it to be this close so managed some nice photos A good thing we went when we did though, as two days later it had disappeared and not seen since! A lifer for me. Also saw most of the resident bird species and lots of Four Spotted Chaser Dragonflies.

Great photos. I like the Dragonflies. I managed to shoot one that was huge! It was like a small bird, not sure which type? Quality is okay as I was shooting with my phone.
ReplyDeleteI have never seen such birds before. I wonder if it will return?
