Even if that Marsh harrier isn't a Bittern and there's no way you can see ticks on the Night herons... LOL... Still the lizard is in the right place... I think they must have the links set up wrong on the page !!:@D
Small Feet Small Shoes
Swifts being the supreme air creatures hardly need legs and in Marlow Bucks I noticed a children’s shoe shop; if swifts needed shoes they’d use children’s sizes! – it was then a waiting game to catch a swift in front of the shoe shop. (Technique = pre focus [back-button-focusing] and high speed burst.)

#Springwatch
Things have been crazy here, for some time now. Aging parents, trying to make decent respectful care plans and settling for ones barely adequate, leaves everyone feeling depleted and lost. I have been struggling with a deadline for a personal goal which appears now, come hell or high water, I am likely to make tomorrow morning...., but it has lost its luster and become one more thing that must be done. On a bit of a drive today we passed this slightly surreal scene, just odd enough to make one wonder, just right enough to wish my name was on one chair. Maybe when we are lost, it is a chance to be found. Maybe somewhere a dream discarded is waiting to be picked up and carried down the road by a new burst of energy. maybe when I am slightly less tired, this will seem less wonderful, but on this day a smile and a thanks to the arranger of the chairs, who gave this view a room. If my life were a house, it might look just like this.
Although fairly common little birds here in the UK, ive spent almost a year trying too hunt some down local too me, soo when i walked towards a big reedbed and i spotted 4 females i knew lovely coloured male wouldnt be far behind!
They are fairly elusive birds spending most of there lives in thick reed beds
Inspired by BBC springwatch i went out to see how easy or as it turned out to be difficult nature photography really is.
