Down By The River 11/08/2026

Post by PimperneBloke »

Linda put me in the mood for Kingfishers, and I realised I'd not been to the river for a while, so with a chore or two to do I popped to town to the "guaranteed" Kingie spot, before doing the chores. Then I popped in to see Mum and Dad and sat in their garden with my camera for a bit, and then finished off with a few shots from my garden.

Hoe you enjoy

Very impressive selection PB. :clap: Few of us can boast a balcony and a barmy Labrador.
Enjoy your break. :nod:

I may have put you in the mood for a Kingie but really no need to sicken me with the brilliant kingie party pics PB!!! :rolleyes:
I thought the Little Egret looked Grey....might just be my tired eyes as some of us were working the day! Nice to see the garden visitors a day Ditsy....but hoping a squirrel would fall in the water!!! A would have been videoing it no taking pics :rofl:
