Recently when out with my bird group, we visited the Quoile
Pondage and these few shots are taken from the hide. In the 2nd shot, you can see the Mountains of Mourne in the distance and in the last shots some beautiful wild Orchids.
I hope you enjoyed seeing these few photographs and tomorrow you will see more things we saw on our day out.
Many thanks for visiting and also to all who comments.

Nice scenes. Looks like another fun day.
ReplyDeleteI have visited the Mourne Mountains. This flower is very pretty--it almost looks like it has been embroidered.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful setting that hide is in, although it does seem to be a long way from the water, and possible bird action!
