Lesser Yellowlegs

Today I saw a Lesser Yellowlegs at Earith in Cambridgeshire. It was the first one I have seen since I was five and a half when I saw one at Amwell in Hertfordshire.

Some Old Pictures

These are some of my old drawings: Gyr Falcon, Great Spotted Woodpecker (aged 9), and Kingfisher (aged 7.) Also a quick sketch of a Great Tit and Common Tern. I can’t remember when I did these!



 

Photos from Fowlmere

I did some photography for the first time with a proper lens.

Firecrest

After coming home from Fowlmere seeing a Firecrest I did this drawing at home...

Minsmere

I took some photos at Minsmere and then drew them.

Red-necked Grebe

Buckden gravel pits.

Wicken Fen

Today I went to Wicken Fen to see the wintering Great Grey Shrike. I eventually saw it. I also saw many Cetti's Warblers which was an extra.

On the way home I saw a pair of Short-eared Owls.
