As the featured bird on BBC Radio 4 this morning was the Ringed Plover it seemed appropriate to put my 'patch' bird on the blog!
So here it is...still protecting its single offspring of a few days old.
 |
| The single youngster looks very vulnerable as it peers out from the beach at the wide world beyond! |
Apart from that a fairly quiet morning with just a few terns fishing in the harbour.
 |
| Common Tern looking great against the approaching storm clouds. |
 |
| ...another shot showing the diagnostic bright red bill with black tip. |
 |
Sandwich Tern with Breakfast....black bill with yellow tip!
 |
| Later in the day ...a tailless Blackbird....a sure indication of the end of the breeding season...summer is going fast! |
