"Je suis celle qu'on ne voit pas
Je suis celle qu'on n'entend pas
Je suis cachée au bord des larmes
Je suis la reine des drames
Quand tu veux dormir je viens pour t'embrasser
Si tu veux courir je rampe à tes côtés
Tu apprends, tu apprendras, je sens ton cœur
Tu comprends, tu comprendras comment t'y faire
Je suis celle qu'on ne voit pas
Je suis celle qu'on n'entend pas
Je suis cachée au bord des larmes
Je suis la reine des drames
Là, sur ta poitrine je cogne pour t'abîmer
Quand tu me devines j'essaye de résister
Tu apprends, tu apprendras, je sens ton cœur
Tu comprends tu comprendras comment t'y faire

For today's bubble theme I remembered that plain water starts to build bubbles when it stands for a while.This is the Turtle Diver from CMF series 20 in a glass of water.

Very curious loons. They swam straight to me as soon as they saw me. Checked me up and then swam away.

Eglwys Nunydd Reservoir , Margam, Glamorgan. Bird has been around a week though I was put off from going initially by reports of birders being kicked off site and having to view from across the M4 motorway. There were a trickle of photos coming out which contradicted this and when a friend went the day before without problem i gave it a go, arriving pre dawn to try and evade security. Got off to a bad start when i was met by security on the track in, but they just asked if i wanted to come in through the gate ! (seems they are only kicking people out when there is sailing typically at weekends). So i did, went up to the res and there was the bird right in front of me. Light wasnt great but for the next 90 minutes it showed at point blank range. A very rare vagrant visitor with 9 previous records in Britain, a bit smaller than a GND and closely related to the BTD.
A few more from Shetland, of a bird I was most hoping to see during my time there. I'll be back again in the Summer next year, and very much hope to catch up with them again.
As per my earlier posts of this bird, these photos were taken under controlled circumstances and under the provision of a Schedule 1 license holder.
