My Blogger Friend in Finland is going to fall about laughing when she sees these images. 😁
Yesterday we actually had snowfall in Dorset.
As afr as I know this is the first snowfall of any consequence that we have had in five years in this immediate area. It has just about disappeared now.
Wow! It's snowing there! Great photos of some great birds. I can't wait for the birds to come back.
ReplyDeleteThanks Anne. Hopefully I will see a few more Winter birds yet.
DeleteHi Roy, beautiful photos. I always like the kingfisher. Here was also a little snow. Have a nice weekend !
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot Caroline.
DeleteA beautiful set of birds, in their natural environment, very well photographed.
ReplyDeleteIt was with great pleasure that I saw them.

ReplyDeleteTack Lasse för dina vänliga kommentarer
DeleteLove the photos, Roy. Quite envious of your snow - last time we had snow here it brought us a Brambling and a Hawfinch to the feeders.
ReplyDeleteI have once got Lapwing photos as close up as yours and was amazed by the colours in their wings - they are beautiful. I hadn't seen any since Brittany where they would be seen in winter inland in the fields, until yesterday when we were out watching some Black Winged Kites which have appeared about a mile from my village. Noticed a large flock of birds faffing about in the fields, which turned out to be Lapwings!
Thanks Mandy. Yes Lapwings or Peewits as we use to call them in darkest Somerset are lovely birds.
