Arundel WWT and Warnham LNR

Slow start to the day.. could have been a better one!

So having hired a lens for the weekend, I headed off for Arundel WWT initially, to put it through its paces.

Sadly it was very very quiet in terms of birds but

Miles high . was surprised to get even this shot!

and as I walked into the Tern Hide at Warnham there was this posey Common Sandpiper  - it was still there on my return about 1 hour later!

Also, although skulking and very well hidden, was the Snipe.. too well camouflaged!

The five Cormorants will still around.

and the two Great Crested Grebes

A posey Grey Heron

and loads of Black headed Gulls

A courting dance practice!

Try again tomorrow.. somewhere different this time! Need to escape...
