out and about

Out and about delivering xmas cards, stopped to take this photo by a local reservoir.




then i saw this and snapped it quickly - my first attempt at trying to photograph a bird in flight and very little time to change lense and focus. I know they're not great shots but at least they're not all blurred! I think its a red kite








A view spoilt by wind turbines

great attempt at the red kite, Derek, amazing birds to watch.

totally agree about the windmills.

Good work, tricky stuff getting birds on the wing. They couldn't have made those windmills any more intrusive if they'd tried. What a bloody eyesore.  Mad

Unless they'd made them the shape of a giant coal/oil burning power station you mean ;)

Thanks everyone. I was sitting in my car, trying to get another lens out of my bag when I saw it. So quite a miracle I managed to get any shots of it at all.

It seems you can see those windmills from all over Northamptonshire. They are of the tallest type in this country I believe. They look very spooky in fog - War of the Worlds type of spooky.


Off to Cornwall tomorrow for the New Year so no more photos from me till after then.

A Happy and Peaceful  New Year to you all
