Friday 27th June and I wanted a change of scenery but with as little effort as possible. We all have those lazy feeling days (gets more often as age advances) so I decide to drive to Welney WWT for a few hours photography, concentrating on the Barn Swallows that nest at the back of the hides.

Well, the idea was mildly successfull

and some rather surprising shots that I only realised during editing.

Anyway, after a few hundred shots of flying Swallows, most of which were blank, I moved on to the other hides, firstly finding a juvenile Blue Tit

and a passing Gadwall

but it was all quiet so few other opportunities but I couldn't resist a final few shots with the Sparrows around the feeders from the veranda - just House Sparrows - no Tree Sparrows surprisingly.

So a mildly successful few hours.
