Grebe Territory

Entering Great-crested Grebe territorial waters at this time of year is definitely not recommended.

Brown and Purple

Although the colours of a Dunnock, Reed Bunting and Crocus flower don't exactly go together, but they were taken on the same walk so I thought them worthy of a post.

Dunnock

Commitment

Little Bird - Big Claws

One bird that has climbing off to a fine art - The Treecreeper.

With its large claws it can climb up tree trunks and hang upside down on branches with ease.

It is also well equipped with a long curled beak that it uses to prize open bark to search for insects.

Shot on a separate occasion this treecreeper in an unusual pose.

Getting the Weed

No not that kind of weed!

Just managed to capture the 'Weed Dance' by this pair of Great-crested Grebes this week.

Not the greatest of light at the time and I didn't have time to change to spot metering, but here is the best of the bunch.
