More birds arriving

Tofsvipa - Northern Lapwing
The first arrivers for the season

Skäggdopping - Great Crested Grebe, a looner
When I enlarged this shot, it was taken across the lake in backlight, I saw that it looks funny. It kicked a lot so it might be injured.  Or maybe loosing feathers.

  2. I agree with Gary -- Great timing on that last shot! I also love the 1st shot and their crown feathers.

  9. The last shot is amazing. I love taking pictures of birds, but find it extremely difficult to get a good shot.

  10. Lovely photos. It must be nice to know there are more birds arriving every day. The migrants down here will soon be leaving for the northern hemisphere.
