Chaffinch.

If anyone is interested and in the area there's a pair of Spoonbills currently at WWT Slimbridge.

Of course my camera is at home!

Well all the bugs have gone into hiding when the deluge arrived, it didn't seem to worry this chap though who sat on the chairs singing away in the rain.

We had a dead pheasant laying in the garden today, and this kestrel hanging around. A bit of easy dinner I suppose.

A Dipper. Seen a few of these on the Tweed. Brilliant to watch it swimming about.

Field upon field of Geese with the occasional group of Swans who were less concerned about our presence.

A rare sighting of a 'White Billed Diver' this afternoon off Margate - only 82 UK sightings this year.

Tracked this one for 5 days to get this shot!
