Certainly did like those photos ILR, such a great selection with beautiful sunsets, stunning wildflowers and the magnificent Red Kite and co. Really have a soft spot for Dippers, don't get to see them as often as I'd like so thanks for all your fab photos.

Great photo's ILR. Like Hazy I don't see the Dippers often enough. Nice sunset.
Many thanks Hazel, so pleased you liked the photos, we had gone to the Yorkshire dales for the weekend as a family group and after unpacking I couldn’t wait to explore the River with the hope of seeing my first dipper. I went out and walked downstream of the river bank, with binoculars in hand, I scanned the shallow water and rocks, after a few minutes a kingfisher flew past me at the usual 100 mile an hour downstream. I had enjoyed the walk and on the way back it could have been the same kingfisher flew past me upstream. The following day I got up early hoping to see a Dipper and walked the same route as the day before with nothing seen I decided to head back when After about five minutes I saw something move and couldn’t believe my luck to see a dipper I crept up slowly towards it taking a few photos as I approached it until I was within twenty meters away. I was like a kid in a sweet shop so happy not only to see one but to photograph it too.
Hi Snappy it was a first for me, I was over the moon not only to see a dipper but to photograph it too. The Sunset was fabulous, I had never seen one as good. My luck was in for a change to see the Dipper and a fabulous sunset what more could I ask for ?
Lovely set of shots ILR, love the Dipper shots, they can be so steady.
Many thanks Scozmos
A lovely set ILR, a beautiful field of colourful wild flowers the moon and sunset are also lovely, thanks
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Thank you Catlady so pleased you liked them
More loveliness ILR, have only seen a Dipper once (and not 100% sure it was one!). Stunning skies and beautiful flowers, topped off with birds of prey and a selection of lovely garden birds... bet you're well chuffed Thanks for sharing
I am well chuffed PB from the lovely comments I have received and a big thank you to everyone who has replied. The dipper was a first for me PB, I was over the moon to see one and was ecstatic to get some photos of it. I have still a lot of birds yet to see the list is endless but each new bird you see is a real buzz. I am sure you agree PB.
