I love those close-up portraits Carole. I never realised the Black Swan had a white saddle on the bill or that Purple Swamphen had quite such an enormous bill.
Hi Carole. Sorry to not getting back to you sooner but I have been out all day. You are right. I do not have my bloggers on my right hand column just as you don't but I do have my google plus. Perhaps it is just blogger having a blip and hope it sorts itself out soon. Your shots today are great and lovely to see the birde in C. Park again.
thanks for visiting Snap Happy Birding, and for leaving a comment; I can still see them. Now both my blogs are resting in idle mode. It was time to give other things priority, even though I miss my regular blogging and the feedback that came my way over the years. Take care.
Nice selection of water birds. Can never get used to the idea of BLACK swans even though there one used to be in Cambridge for many years.
ReplyDeleteOMG these are incredible pictures.

ReplyDeleteNice shots again Carole....i like the black swan very much.
