    Fair Daffodils

    There is a bit of a green area near the Dropping Well carpark in Milltown- Dublin.


    I have noticed that this heron spends a lot of time there.
    Eats worms to beat the band
    Doesn't worry about humans or dogs unless they get really close
    Changing times

    Turnstones at Bray Harbour over the weekend. They're very confiding when there aren't children and/or dogs running at them...

    How do you attach photos again? I thought there was an attachment thing you could click on before???

    Go to 'Go Advanced' and click on the paperclip. Otherwise, if you have the URL (let's say you have already posted the images somewhere else), just click on the yellow icon with the 'sun' and the 'mountains'.

    A Herring Gull with an overgrown upper mandible - Bray Harbour last weekend. The bird has been present for a year or so apparently.

    He looks like he's wearing shirt and tie and he's just putting on his suit jacket before heading to work! :)

    I saw that but when I read the name against it, I said "No, the one I'm thinking of was by keps"

    Another big Congrats, KEPS! Pity they don't pay though, especially if they're using it to advertise.

    A Kumlein's Gull - currently considered a subspecies of Iceland Gull - in Bray Harbour during the week. They breed in Arctic Canada and winter in America, but they're a regular vagrant in Ireland.

    the pictures in her are only stunning. Can I ask what size lens people use to get these results?
