2 Hours at Marsh Lane

Flying visit en-route to a friends for dinner so only a quick 2hour stay. Alot of the usual culprits were there, and many that wasn't, although i did gain a brand new tick for the day with this -

Whitethroat
Not a brilliant shot i'll grant you, but my first so he gets some internet stardom!

Infact i didnt do very good at all for decent shots, I haven't a clue where i'm going wrong apart from maybe trying to shoot from to greater distance?

This didn't come out to bad though -

Common Tern
Mr Pochard is still resident, obviously likes his surroundings as he's the only one there -

And i'm including this as its the first time ive ever seen one out of the water -

Great Crested Grebe
Dozens of these fella's about -
Black-headed Gull
As with these -
Lapwing
The weather was pretty cool compared to recently, and the wind was very strong, so strong infact that there was nothing on the feeders at all which i found quite odd?
