Good Weather, Bad Photos
We do have quite a few grey herons living in the area and a lots more storks (now all gone for the winter). And for a few days in autumn there are a few great egrets stopping over on their migratory route. And I spotted one yesterday! Both those birds didn’t let me get close and I just managed to get a blurred photo of the grey taking off. I am always in awe about their wingspan, so I am including this last shot as well.

Born with wings
I’m usually too slow to photograph birds in flight. So I appreciated the strong winds that held the seagulls in a steady position. Also thanks to the kestrels I’ve photographed over the years – their hovering made it easier.
And I am adding this photo of these great egrets who were visiting for a few days on their way south for the winter. They didn’t let me get close enough for a good shot but I managed to snap them taking.
