Parakeet Productions.



Finally decided to try my hand at a bit of wildlife filming while iv been out recently. And my first culprit was this Ring-Necked Parakeet. Hope you enjoy my clip and hopefully more will be posted in the near future.

Happy jack



After a wasted trip to Abberton yesterday i decided to return to the island a see if the Grey Phalarope was still present at the country park and it was. Although as i arrived another birdwatcher told me he had seen 2 jack snipe. So after an hour off scanning the margins this little beauty strolled in to view.

Glossy moment.








There has been sightings of two Glossy ibis on a local farm recently, but with no access permitted id given up hope off seeing them. So when this one decided to take a rest and prone itself on the pond at Cudmore grove, i couldn't believe me luck. Although the foliage restricted the views i still managed to weave the lens through the leafs and obtain some record shots.

Dizzy sunday morning.






At long last something new, to add to my blog. This scarce grey phalarope has been present at the Mersea island country park for the last few days. And its constant spinning behavier soon had me feeling dizzy trying to photograph it.
