Shelduck
Shelducks remind me of Norfolk and Snettisham in particular. This was where I first remember seeing hundreds of them on every piece of water I looked at one winter. Great looking birds and so very colourful. These shots were taken at Martin Mere this Autumn. Look what a difference the light makes to the colour. It's been a very frustrating Autumn/Winter this year. Just not enough light at the weekends for good pictures.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful series, I've never seen a duck like this before. Wishing you much joy in this season of love.
ReplyDeleteSplendid birds - for me they are a bird of the Northumbrian Coast - winter cold, and sharp east winds.
