Evening Gulls...


I decided to head over to Ainsdale beach tonight in hope of photographing a number of gulls, inparticular the Common Gull that doesn't really live up to its name but as you can see, the evening sun was that beautiful I took advantage of some of the others around on the beach,

I hope that you like them:-

They Really Started To Bug Me

I had a lot of uni work to do today, so I didn't get to chance to go out till after tea, so I decided to work out in the garden to see what I could see, not much around really, Goldfinch, Great Tit, House Martin, Black Headed Gull, Herring Gull, 2 Lesser Black Backed Gull, plenty of Feral Pigeons, 1 wood pigeon and plenty of Honey Bees, witch I really wanted to get a photo of in flight but it just started to bug me.

Here's a few pics. I took in between my work:-

Marshside's Coming to Form...

I decided to spend a day down at Marshside today with my Dad after the recent nice weather, but we were rather disappointed when the thick haze failed to clear till late afternoon but we were treated to a beautiful sunset, anyway Marshside was shaping up quite nicely, the odd Wheatears bobbing around behind the sand plant, Meadow Pipits a plenty, Skylarks singing all over the place, blackbirds and a very cooperative kestrel that let us get to within two metres of it before flying off into the evening sun.

Out on the marsh there was all the usual birds were floating around from here to there, lots of Avocets flying around which included one couples pairing up, mating and the female retreating into a scraping on a near by island.

Elsewhere on the marshes, all the blackwits are gaining there summer plumage, which is always nice to see, unfortunately they were all to far away to get a picture, plenty of little egret around, all the golden plover gaining there summer plumage, small flocks of dunlin knocking around with one little stint in amongst them, snipe, lapwing and curlew all around the pools, also multiple redshanks with one dropping in to give us a nice close up view.

Checking through all the gull that I could see today, i found no abnormalities knocking around, although whilst watching a Lesser black black washing in what could only be described as an unusual way i managed to get a few pics, there not anything special but here they are...
