Sunrise over Marazion marsh

We had our first keen frost of the winter this morning,  A dawn sky and sunrise to die for and a mixed bag of regular wildlife which started with a Roe Deer near the rail tracks cutting through the marsh,  The rabbits were slow to get moving and spent time shaking the frost from the grass off their cold paws as they went. A pair of colourful mallard flew in caught by the rays of the rising sun which also tinted the water splash as they landed at the front of the marsh and finally a Cormorant hauled out or the water looking full from early morning fishing to dry its wings in the early warmth of the sun.  No illusive Bittern or Sparrowhawk,  both of which had been well photographed here earlier in the week by young Ben Oates but if the weather stays fine I might pop back down during late afternoon until sunset,  The marsh is a cracking location for photography when the sun shines !!
