Bluetail

With the forecast reasonable for saturday spent at pleasent morning down at marshside on the gloucester border spent watching the Red-flanked Bluetail which has been wintering a beautiful bird but a very speedy bird also great to see closeup in the beautiful settings of the cotwolds. It felt springlike as above were raverns performing and buzzards overhead and a added bonus of a pair of stonechats along the farm road.

  1. Hello Andrew! Just so you know you're the photographer that inspired me to start doing my 'drawing birds to the garden' project. I've finally finished my 10th and made it into a zine. Only took 3 years. Wish I could take photographs like you can!
