Watched the otters being quite active which was nice.
Was going onto Bushy Park afterwards but as I drove nearer the traffic, both going to and coming from, was quite heavy and black clouds were gathering. So I cut my losses and headed for home. Bit disappointing really...
Shovelers were on the water as you walked over the bridge to the visitor's centre!
and this Owl didn't move a muscle!

You might have been disappointed, but your photos are not disappointing! The shovelers are wonderful; especially the one of the male looking over his shoulder at you. Also good ones of the otters - one of them shows the webbing of a hind foot quite clearly. Good stuff, Tricia!
Thanks Wilma... The light was good when I took the Shoveler shots.. but it varied considerably after that!!
the otters were almost too close for my lens on some occasions :D
Really love the 'owl' shot lol. Some great Shoveller photos too. Sorry you didnt get to see 'Burt' or the Smew, I also dipped on 'Burt' and only got brief glimpse of Smew, when I was last there. I know you dont like snow but I'm really hoping for a thick layer and some low temperatures to bring out the Water Rails and 'Burts'.
The grass is so green...sigh! I'm envious! Great shots. Love the otters.
A shame about the Bittern and Smew Tricia but some lovely photos :) Wonderful otter pics :)
oc - The grass is very green - think it might be the amount of rain we've had... very water logged everywhere!
RR - Thanks. .. the otters were really performing for shots :)
I was thinking those Shovelers are great, but then I saw the Otters. Wow!
Amazing images Tricia especially the Otters.
