Smew

Little Egret

Peregrine

With no birding done since getting back from Scilly I thought I'd get out for a bit and visit Tring in the hope of seeing one of my favourite birds. I got into the hide and within a minute was lucky enough to lay eyes on the drake Smew for a couple of minutes before it swam out of view. I had a quick go on my new camera and was impressed with the photos taken in the gloom. A Kingfisher put in a brief appearance and in a tree behind the hide a Peregrine had a preen.
