End of 2010.

These are just a few shots from the last few days.Thought we had better get something up before the end of the year. I'm sure all the Birders will be out in force tomorrow so we look forward to bumping into some of you. Happy New Year.

Sunday at Stithians.

A few shots from a quick visit to one of my favourite haunts (Stithians Reservoir) on Sunday afternoon. Had both hides to myself and didn't see another soul, just me and the flask. John
