A Magical Morning....along the North Wall

A real autmn morning.....cold and misty.
Few birds initially but very atmospheric...


A few Greenshanks calling, Snipe flying over and the Brents 'talking' to each other as they fly to their feeding grounds....wonderful sights and sounds.
 Back along the spit a little later and  the sun had broken through the mist and the morning was warm and pleasant...
A pair of Wigeon mingled with a juvenile Brent goose

A Red Admiral enjoying feeding on the ivy.

A single Common Gull surrounded by Black Headed cousins!
A couple of Black Headed Gulls on a roof....notice both are ringed...the one on the left dancing for joy!
Unfortunately the weather changed dramatically in the afternoon and heavy rain moved in.
