Tehidy Country Park

We spent the afternoon at Tehidy Country Park and young birds were everywhere. Because we had such a good time, in lovely weather we are posting lots of pics. Nothing rare but enjoyable just the same. We would have had more but a lot of fledglings stayed in cover, very frustrating when all you can see is movement.















These 3 Moths were supposed to be in yesterdays post, but got missed.

  2. Always good to see the new arrivals this time of year; rare or not. Lovely set of shots.
    I think the Jay's my favourite there. Very shy at times, but you've caught him really well.

  6. ...beautiful, graceful swans, and I love the baby coot. It looks like it could be a baby turkey vulture with that red face. I like that Old Man in the Tree carving also.

  16. Beautiful collection of photos and a very interesting Blog.I think Malaysia is a good place to do birding since you'd still be driving on the 'right side'. Spent 2 yrs in Norwich, 6 yrs in Nottingham & 2 yrs in London.I know Cornwall is a beautiful place. Thanks for visiting Wings Among Us, would appreciate any comments. Rgds madibirder
