Black-headed Gulls are nesting, and the sound of gulls calling is filling the air, one sound in nature I find quite irritating after an hour or so!
Time to nest.
Titchfield harbour & nature reserve.
Reed Bunting.
A lone Male Reed Bunting on a high perch singing in this morning’s sun at Titchfield Haven this morning.
Long-range Videos.
A couple of video films taken at Titchfield Haven Nature Reserve this morning. I wanted to capture some film of the Mediterranean Gulls, and due to their distance from the vantage point, I used an X2 converter on my Fuji 150mm to 600mm to reach the distance. Given the extreme distances, I felt the quality of the films was not too bad.
My second film is Black-tailed Godwits.
Happy hunting.
I was lucky to capture these images of this fox hunting this morning
Close encounter.
Close encounter of the fox kind. A photo-heavy post of a nice condition young fox while walking in the rain at Titchfield Haven Nature Reserve yesterday. Always nice to see, and even better when they just wander past when you stand still.
off she goes!
Balanced View.
A female Kingfisher at Titchfield Haven this morning. I find it amazing how some birds can balance on very flexible perches.
Lunch Time.
Good Morning.
Grey Heron waking for the day ahead!
Resting place.
The tide was exceptionally high yesterday, with strong winds in the Solent, so the water in Titchfield Haven was also very high, flooding many of the small islands where the birds roost.
These Lapwings were competing for a place on these wooden posts.
Island D is missing!
Marsh Harrier.
