I went to the Wetlands at Seaton with the express intention of getting some macro shots of the insects there.
I was suprised at the lack of bees but easily found subjects to populate the Facebook Page.
The Shellduck ducklings were on show, see them in another post here.
Little Egret at Seaton Wetlands
Sunday was a superb day with sunshine and blue skies. The evening sunset provided a soft light which any photographer would enjoy. The wetlands as always had subjects galore and the Robin kindly posed for me. Click to enlarge.
Seaton Wetlands.
A dull day and high tide with few waders about in the morning. Spent a couple of hours here.
Some Teal brightened the morning feeding near the visitor centre. The Pheasants were evident released and ready to be shot anytime soon by someone who can afford to do this offensive “sport” Over 50,000,000 are released into the environment bringing disease and upsetting the wild bird food chain.
Little Egret obliged me today with this superb take off. Seaton Wetlands.

This crab spider was sitting on some cow parsley and provided a good subject at Seaton Wetlands which is more known for its bird watching.

This guy was singing his heart out, oblivious to all who stood and listened to him on the path to the Tower Hide.
