Couldn't resit taking a few more shots today of the Blue Arrows

 Two captured on camera for the first time.

Lots of posturing going on between the two!

Bonus offer was that I confirmed the sight of two Little Owls on the way to the pond - the one here seems to be a juvenille.  See previous post of one of the parents. Their home is the bale stack next to LBF. 

... and a Morehen picking aquatic life hiding in the water lillies.

 

Moorhen Eggs at Easter

 

Six beautifully marked eggs from our resident Moorhen. Sadly on checking the nest 2 days later all eggs were gone... Possibly fox or badger had a good meal at my espence.  There were no signs of broken eggshells. That will likely explain why the Dab chicks abandoned their nest part way through building it.
