A right old menagerie followed the squirrels on the island... maybe enough to challenge Linda's garden... I didn't keep count :D

Hope you enjoy

Im not sure what happened to my original reply but my goodness you really are getting to grips with your kit- the in flight photos are stunning and that peacocks tail is glorious and in such good condition.

Not a single dove or pigeon PB...🙃

Noce to see the terns, I haven't seen any yet, they are on my to do.list 😁

That's a nice close up of the greenshank, the few I have seen have all been further away.

An impressive selection of birds from your day out.

Thanks Cin... I've not brought any new kit for a while... hmmm.... ;)
BTW, I sent the lifeboat pic to RNLI as you suggested... it's not straightforward finding an email address lol. Hopefully they'll like it or use it in some way :)
