A nice big bill is just right for rooting in the mud. Yesterday Lockhart saw this Shelduck rooting for food.
I also like his action shot of a Grey Heron
and the close-up of a Great Crested Grebe.
Now is the time when the damselflies as on the wing and we have four species at present; Large Red, Common Blue, Blue Tailed and Azure.
A Blue Tailed Damselfly seen by Lockhart yesterday.
The adults are on the wing for just a short time having spent many months in water - I saw one youngster in the Wildlife Garden pond today.
No photos from today but the Spoonbill is still around and an Osprey flew over this afternoon.
