So it was very bright today and decided on a wee wonder up the Haugh in search of some Waxwings....not that I have heard they are there..just saw Bob's photos and though I wanna a piece of them...as you do lol
Carpark was pretty busy but then the sun was out so that's expected
But the moon was out also
Lots of noise but couldn't see a darn bird as sun was in my eyes!!
Redwing
Fieldfare finally arrived
Am being watched
Just something about this tree I like..maybe the fact I know there is plenty birds I it just canny bloody see them lol
Walked up the river and zooming past us went a kingie..no pic!
But was little Grebes and Goosanders
Was a cold wind so we headed back to the hides..First one was busy so we didny go in....went to the marsh hide and only one other guy in so that suited us as in flew a green sandpiper
Some sleepy heads
Then in flew a kingie woohoo
WARNING KINGIE OVERLOAD!!!
And then he moved even closer to the other side of the hide where the lighting was just perfect
I was changing camera when he went fishing!!!
He was my perfect wee firework.....was chilled to the bone and hubby had sneezing fits so had to call it a morning
Thanks for looking
Hope you enjoyed as much as me ;-)

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
That looked cold at The Haugh, but super photos, particularly the kingie.
