Waiting for the Tide

Thanks Chris. Yes, quite a lot of snow here today (for this part of the country anyway.) I am quite happy to sit indoors at the keyboard.

A lovely, colourful image Jeff. Bullfinches are birds that I rarely see these days. Lucky you to be able to go out and photograph them whenever you like....

A very nice behavioural shot Mark.

Turnstones and Oystercatchers passing the time as they wait for the tide to turn to allow them to feed on the rocks on a dull day recently. Standing on...

Tit and Chaff sounds very painful. Super shots Mark.

Oystercatchers at Ness Point, Lowestoft recently. I have seen a lot more of these birds there this year than previously.

Purple Sandpipers at Lowestoft Ness Point a couple of days ago. It was extremely gloomy and the light was so bad that I even had trouble keeping track...

Another terrific set with some stunning birds Chris. The feather patterns on the penguins really makes sense in that setting. I especially like the simplicity...

Mine was made in China too. It is marked on the box and also very discretely somewhere on the lens itself, probably on the mount. I am reluctant to remove...

Google Lens on my phone thinks it is a male Yellow Dung Fly (Scathophaga stercoraria.) I don't know if that is correct but it is a great photo whatever...

I was in the kitchen today when I noticed a largish bird fly across the garden just above the ground and up onto the fence, partially obscured by our...

Another interesting set from you as usual. The picture of the young lady in the fourth one is a bit painful for me to view as I am sporting a similar...

One of the many Chinese Water Deer to be seen at Carlton Marshes, photographed back in October. I am really posting this to see if I can avoid the uploading...

I just attempted to upload a photo processed with Affinity. I exported it as a jpeg, reducing the width to 1600 pixels and turning off 'Embed Metadata'...

Sad news but, as has been said, not unexpected unfortunately. I watched the BBC4 programme about him and greatly enjoyed it. It is still available to...
