Crested tits at RSPB Loch Garten

bird, Cairngorm, Scotland, titBy Neil-UKWildlifeMay 13, 2013Leave a comment

Some more photos from the Loch Garten Car Park, where I spent all day waiting for some crested tits to pose for photos. I got some nice shots, thanks to some excellent help from my friend Ian, who also lent me his Canon 7D and 600mm L lens to use!

Goldcrest

bird, Cairngorm, ScotlandBy Neil-UKWildlifeMay 12, 2013Leave a comment

I had a number of sightings of goldcrests in the Loch Garten Car Par, but they never really posed for a photo in a near enough or clear enough position. The best I managed was probably this

Great tit

Wood pigeon close ups and collared dove

bird, Kent, pigeonBy Neil-UKWildlifeMay 11, 2013Leave a comment

While in Kent a wood pigeon kept coming down to the garden bird table. It seemed relatively tolerant so I crept in towards it for a close up…. …and got one! I managed a shot of it on the fence waiting to come down. And later flying around in the trees. I got another nice…

Little grebe on a nest Tachybaptus ruficollis

bird, Essex, RSPB Rainham, waterfowlBy Neil-UKWildlifeApril 28, 20132 Comments

Today at Rainham Marshes there was a little grebe sitting on its nest. I sat on the boardwalk near the nest and took a number of photos. Apparently to start with she was constantly on and off the nest, possibly due to the people walking past (its the only path/boardwalk you can walk along so…

Grasshopper Warbler

bird, Essex, warblerBy Neil-UKWildlifeApril 25, 2013Leave a comment

On Tuesday I got word there was a grasshopper warbler about, but it took 3 attempts to hear and then finally see it, which was my first ever view of the species. I then staked it out yesterday evening, when the light was much poorer of course, and got a couple of OK grab shots…

Crested tit

bird, Cairngorm, Scotland, titBy Neil-UKWildlifeApril 21, 2013Leave a comment

The bird I was after at Loch Garten was a crested tit. My friend Ian was kind enough to lend me his 7D and 600mm prime lens to help me out! (see his and Paulines excellent images here: Pauline and Ian’s Zenfolio). With his help I managed a few shots, including this one. As you…

Robin

bird, Cairngorm, Scotland, thrushBy Neil-UKWildlifeApril 19, 2013Leave a comment

A quick shot from the Loch Garten feeders. I went all the way up to the Highlands of Scotland and photographed….a robin. It looked so nice in the sun I couldn’t resist pressing the shutter!
