Re: Otters

Thanks for the reply David. I would love to know where they could be found to photograph. But if the sites are confidential so be it. plus half the fun is searching and discovering.

Re: Sad news .

The Cygnets were taken to a swan sanctuary in Blackpool. 2 of them were found dead in the space of a week, and a third one was poorly. The water in the lake is going to be tested sometime soon and tests are being carried out on the second cygnet.

Just fledged Kessy

I was told that some kestrels were ready to fledge. So at safe distance I started to set up the tripod hoping to photograph the leap of faith. One couldn't wait for me and took the plunge landing at my feet so I grabbed 1 shot and left them to it.

Swan at Lower Healey

My apologies to all on here. I thought it was the female swan that had gone from the lower lodge. It was in fact the male as was reported in the local press. I went to see how the swan was doing and she is sitting on 7 eggs. 2 of the eggs are small so I'm assuming they are un-fertilised
