Reed Bunting



I went to Stithians southern cut-off  hide PM today to try for better lighting angles and mating shots of the Little Grebe.

They were off over the other side of the cut-off when I arrived so I whiled the time away snapping a male Reed bunting that was very active.

The Male goldfinch were looking immaculate in their punchy coloured mating plumage and a Jenny Wren was thriving on insects caught along the water margins.

The pair of Little Grebe eventually returned across the water and sure enough I achieved some better lighting angles to bring out the darker colours and eyes of these interesting birds but still no mating shots at the moment but it will hopefully happen soon on another bright and sunny day.
