Birds seen at the Flood Gates, Newtownards.

As you may know, in the UK we are still allowed to walk in the fresh air but not in a group so now my early morning walkers walk solo but report in daily on a WhatsApp as an encouragement to all the members.  So these photographs of Brent Geese, a noisy Lesser Black backed gull, Mallard, Redshank, Dunlin, Hooded Crow and Dunnock were taken at the Flood Gates, last week, near Newtownards.











Each day I try and take a different walk taking photos and I now have several of my groups that are on WhatsApp and so daily I am spending more time editing the images so that members can see nature and keep in communication with one another as we are all in isolation.  So, I have not had  the same time to comment on your posts but I do look at them.  It is taking all of my time still making a daily post of my own!

Many thanks for visiting and commenting.
Please stay Safe.

  2. The Brent geese look a bit like Canada Geese. But my favorite is the Hooded Crow.
