Two Immatures

Immature Swallows resting on a branch.


Immature Reed Warbler (I think), sitting at the side of a river. 
It was a little too exposed for my liking in that position, but it enabled me to shoot across the river to get these images.

    Lots of various fledglings about just now. They all seemed to make up for a miserable start to the Spring at the same time.
