Thanks, Lis

A few more from yesterday. Not the bestest quality but it was still fun.

Meadow Pipit

Muskbeaver, I believe. It was too small to be a Nutria.

Skylark doing its singing flight. (Tick!)

Common Ringed Plover heavily cropped as it was far off. (Tick!)

Ill-tempered Arctic Tern.

Oystercatcher - another noisy bird

Skylark trying to hide in the tall grass.

Black-Headed Gull

Willow Warbler (Tick!)

Lesser Black-Backed Gull

Hope I'll find some more now.

Nice ones Mel. $\O$

Good to see you getting new birds.

Skylatks are not easy to get in flight - superb pic of one that you captured. Well done. $O/\$ $O/\$ $O/\$

The oystercatcher is well captured

Interesting to learn the common english names for the birdies: "Skylark" sounds very elegant

Sound like the name of an "antic" car....like "Thunderbird"
