Gossy Quickie

I managed to get 30 mins at Gosforth Park Nature Reserve before i got a call to inform me that i was needed else where. I had just opened the shutters on the pyle hide ? when there in front of me were two Reed Warblers



Now i had only previously seen them from a distance so this was a real treat to have them ten foot away from me.

On the way back to the car i clocked a few insects new to me. I haven't had time to find out their names yet so i will update the blog when I've got the info.


Here's some pics of the new beasties




Soldier Beetle


Whoops bit out of focus that one



And to finish, this Little Grebe chick exploring the lake.



It is amazing what can be seen in 30 mins.
