The weather has been so dull this week I decided to post a few shots from last Spring.
Frustrating when we have all this holiday time.
It`s back to work next week so it`s weekends only for a while.

More Thrushes and Waxwings from today.

Waxwings.

Thisyears influx doesn`t seem to want to co-operate, not yet anyway!
These are a few shots from the last influx.

Thrushes and Starling.

Had to make the most of these conditions, a scary drive out to Llanishen was worth it but no Waxwings.

The Pembrokeshire Squacco Heron.

When a Bird performs this well for the camera it`s hard to stop!

Hawfinches.

At Fforest Ganol ( near Castell Coch) this single Bird came to feed below the canopy.

Glossy Ibis.

This Ibis photographed a few weeks ago at a stream at Dunraven became very tame, seen eating a Common Frog.

The Kenfig Bitterns.

The recent freeze have brought out up to 4 Bitterns out onto the ice at Kenfig, enabling great photo opportunities.
