A Mixed Bag.

We went up to Somerset and Gloucester last week-end, hoping for early
 Dragonflies and Butterflies but it was so cold and windy that nothing was flying. 
It was a bit disappointing but we still saw some good birds.
There were quite a few young around and we even saw signs of Beavers at Cotswold Water Park.

The Last 2 Weeks.


We have had terrible computer problems, all fixed now, hence the lack of posts.
We thought we had better get something up or you'll all think we're dead and buried.
John's taken these over the last few weeks.

Our visit to England !

We went into England (Exminster) at the weekend to visit our son and daughter-in-law and managed to get a bit of birding done at the same time. Strange goings-on up there with Cormorants on wires!! and White-headed Blackbirds.




I have never seen a Swan bathing with such force, at times on his back and almost completely submerged. It made quite a nice series of shots. Sue
