I'm off to Rye Meads Nature Reserve for the day today, where I believe a brood of kingfisher chicks have just hatched! Hoping to get some photos of them!! And the weather doesn't look too bad.....keep your fingers crossed for me! |

Well....no kingfishers, no otters, no voles....nothing at all really! I've never been to a place where so little was going on! Some peeps in a hide said thay'd seen a kingfisher 5 minutes before we arrived, but it never appeared again while we were there. We heard loads of birds singing, but rarely saw them. Only two butterflies! No squirrels even. A couple of dragonflies, but considering it was full of ponds, there should have been hundreds! Very odd. But at least it didn't rain! |

Yes it was a nice place to visit - it was lovely by the River Stort too, Viv! The first thing we came across, even before we got there, was this It was a gorgeous little building!! I took a few shots...a Skipper butterfly, a cormorant, and some silly ducks! I would appreciate comments from those of you who are Flickr-ers! |
