Hi,
To make a change from the mammals of the area I live close by to. Here are some Birds from the lakes that I have visited over the years.
There are four photos taken in the evening across three locations including a Swan, Great Crested Grebe and a row of Cormorants.
The swan worked its way from the bold blacked out water into the reflection of the Autumnal leaves of the canopy of trees above leaving a copper finish to the lake surface and two lovely reflections.
The following four shots of two Kingfishers were taken both on a local canal and a small fishing lake in the town close by.
These two photos were taken on a fishing lake in Abington Park, Northampton.
Taken in the mid afternoon at 539mm Optical (not digital) zoom.
Caught a lovely resolution in the sunlight.
The next two photos were take within minutes of each other as I watched a Kingfisher dart along the Grand Union Canal at midday.
