WILD BIRD WEDNESDAY

I visited a National Trust Property recently at Mount Stewart Gardens, near Newtownards and as I was  walking round the lake, in the distance I spied a Little Grebe who was happily diving for food.

Little Grebe at Kiltonga Nature Reserve

Recently my birders and I visited the Floodgates and Kiltonga Nature Reserve in Newtownards to do a spot of bird watching.  This Little Grebe was very far away and every second he was diving for lunch so not such a great shot!

 I hope you enjoyed this post today.

WILD BIRD WEDNESDAY

While taking a walk round the reservoir at Conlig, near Bangor, I spied these eggs on a floating nest and they belonged to this Little Grebe.  There were also a Mallard with her three chicks.

SATURDAY CRITTERS

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 the Heron, Chiffchaff, Bullfinch and Little Grebe were taken at the Conlig Reservoir 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.
