I haven't really had alot of time to post due to work commitments etc so here is a catch up from the last few weeks.
Following the Short Eared Owl visit I was lucky enough to visit again a few times and the light was
better whilst the owls also came a little closer.
The following weekend Ken and myself headed to Knypersley to hopefully get a few shots of the Bramblings. Upon arrival with met with Steve S and he gave us directions to where they were along with a few tips. We opted for the car park area and it wasn't long before we got to see the Bramblings through the bins. Trying to get good pics of them was another things though. This was the best I managed but hopefully more to follow soon.
On Sunday we decided to head to Conwy to photograph the snow buntings. This was a good idea as the sun was out but what we hadn't looked at was the 40+mph winds :(
Ken took a walk to locate the snow buntings but came back "sand blasted". It was so bad he couldn't even keep his eyes open.
A wait in the car and then a breakfast didn't help as the wind was still to strong and there was no chance of talking any pics.
We decided to leave even though we hadn't even got the camera's out. A quick call into Knypersley again on the way home but yet again the wind was too strong and all the birds had taken cover. Oh well there is always another day I kept telling myself.
