Waxwings at Little Dean, Forest of Dean (part 3)

I shot these at one of my best places, at Little Dean. These are some of my best, though I am loathe to say. I was working on my pieces, when I felt rather sleepy. It was no doubt, I took 1250 photographs, and I am tired. So I leave you, and go and fall over, asleep..........................

Waxwings (part 2 - at Cinderford, Forest of Dean)

There were about 90 Waxwings on the trees at the supermarket, Lidl. Again, no sun to cheers ourselves up.

Waxwing at Little Dean

Today was the day I had been waiting for, 6 Waxwings. It wasn't a bright morning, but with a bit of fiddleing with camera, I took some my favourite birds. I got 10 meters from them, yes, I didn't use any cutting.



The last one is a bit fuzzy, but I thought it might be a laugh. They all had a bit of fuzziness.

Tufted Duck

Everywhere that I went, there weren't any birds, so, on my way home, I stopped at Lydney boating lake. There I found a Tufted Duck swimming in a little patch, (iced up) and it was little, plus the other birds. He had nearly nothing to swim about in. Poor little waterfowls.

Black-headed Gulls (Lydney boating pool - frozen ice)

 I think that I am getting a bit darker...............
                                                             Yes, I think so.
                          All that thinking makes me want to scratch, ah that's better.
                                                         Let me have a look...........
                                                            I see no ships.......
                                                            nor this way.
 Hey you up there, I am a little bit darker than you.
Oh.......................
