One of my favourite photos from this year: the juvenile Grey Heron

This youngster dropped down at the edge of the lake, just a short distance from where I was stood photographing Reed warblers.

A juvenile grey heron close up, in profile. The bird is facing to the right. Its soft grey feathers are backlit adding a warm glow to the edges. The background is green bulrushes.

Really good news. Social media is a funny thing- there’s so much hate flying around but here there is a haven of goodness (like the early twitter days) where people are normal and nice. Just as they should be. So absences are noticed and even though we don’t know people, we often feel like we do.

I’m really pleased he’s ok. Keeping everything crossed for him, and hopefully we’ll see him back soon. Thank you so much for letting me know.

Thanks Glen. Guess who got woken up by noisy neighbours putting out their bins at 5am 😤😄🤫🤫🤫
Must try harder to not have subtext to my photo posts 😉

A couple of Egyptian Geese on the log pile. I couldn’t quite get the compositions I wanted due to a nearby Stag. #birds

That’s lovely. What medium do you paint in? These may be the same guy - he was very alert and listening for the sound of a female he was trying to isolate from her group on the other side of the stream. Including incase wider body shots/poses are helpful.

Hi Abbe, thank you. Sure- why not ☺️ (and thank you so much for checking first). If you wouldn’t mind sharing an image of your artwork once complete, I’d love to see it.

I love the swagger they get, how they arch their necks above the grasses and bracken to check on their females -and the young pretenders who are always lurking. Glad you got to see some too. I’m 🙏🏻 for rain as I want more atmosphere.

Boop!
(Disclaimer: definitely do not boop! 🤣)

Whilst this is quite a funny image with those large nostrils and big old tongue sticking out- this is how the stags test the scent of the hinds (females) to determine if they’re in oestrus (and ready to mate). #UKWildlife

Yeah, it Carrie’s across the still quiet mornings, and you can see their bellies vibrate. There were a few of the older ones losing their voices today. Still a few weeks to go too.

Thanks. There were literally stags all around me, as you could hear. It made it very hard to keep a good distance and you needed eyes in the back of your head - but it’s fascinating to watch them.
