Green Woodpecker (New Fancy, Forest of Dean)

The glorious Green Woodpecker. It is short of being a brilliant picture, but I'm working on it.

Garganey (Slimbridge WWT)

I went to find out about a car, one that doesn't take up everyones place, but with enough space to store all my bird stuff. It's green - like a hide on wheels. It is cheap, because it doesn't use much petrol. That is the right move, yes, I'll have that one.......................

Old times for the pictures

Waxwing. I was asked for by our friendly Chris http://chris-photonature.blogspot.com/ This one was taken on 12th December, 2008

The Cormorant taken in the summer

and the Black-tailed Skimmer.

It wasn't because it was raining, thought it was a little, but I was kept in by the kindly plastering man, who left me with number of my kitchen units, and went to someone just next door. I am still without the units. And, I was without my daily birding.

New practice for me!

Well, it was a case of "what to do I on bad day", so I have been working on my pictures. The Waxwing was a black and white (sort of) version, and the Meadow Pipit was sepia sort. I thought that it would be a kind thing to do.

It is just a baby!
