Just back from a few weeks in the UK. The plan was to shoot foreshore and Marsh Birds in North Kent, but storms Ciara, Denis and Jorgé, had other ideas!

Anyway, here are a few shots and my blog (link below) has more details.

Sorry, I thought that I had named them............WillowTit, Brambling & Dunnock.

I'm lucky that I have a large garden, which gives me good photo opportunities during the current lock down:

This ones mocking me - I've got a long lens (cheapest one Fuiji do!) that sits next to me most of the day so I can photos out of my home office window, didn't need it for this one as he(?) just landed on the window ledge so quickly snapped this with my phone,
