TWO WEEKS WORTH.



A selection of shots from the last 2 weeks. 
We did hear a Cuckoo and had a fleeting glance of Ring Ouzel
The Snowy Owl is just a record shot. It's the second we have seen in Cornwall in 8 years.

  7. Great series of images. Garganey is a real nemesis bird for me. It had eluded me several times and then I saw one in Ethiopia a couple of years ago. Even then it was only a female and I have yet to see a male! Cornwall seems like a great place to live and bird. Make sure you get out there again today, John, and have your camera at the ready!

  11. An absolutely wonderful set of images, John. What an amazing fortnight you had! You'll probably not be surprised that I'm very jealous of your Snowy Owl! I suspect I'll go to my grave without ever seeing one!

    My very best wishes to you both - - - Richard
