Back-lit Dunnock

Since the accident I've rather fallen off from my posting schedule. This is partly because I've not been out much with the camera - and partly because of other preoccupations. Sorting out a new car. Sorting out the insurance on the old one. Other such niggles!

Today however, I made it across to Kempton Nature reserve - and despite dire predictions regarding the weather this weekend, it was actually a lovely afternoon. Not a lot going on while I was there, but it was nice to be out in the sun. With not a lot of activity on the water I contented myself with shots of small birds. The highlight of the afternoon was this back-lit dunnock which came in to feed directly in front of the hide.
