This week's theme is 'the view from here', where here is is up to the photographer and I have cheated a little bit. My 'here' was the hide at Calke Abbey. I have passed the hide several times and always wanted to go in and try my hand at photographing the birds feeding at the special stations that they have set up.I could have spent a lot longer in there but was conscious of everybody waiting for me in the car (the weather was appalling). The birds landing and feeding are so FAST! I used continuous shutter and crossed my fingers. This is about the sharpest of a blue tit that I got but I got a few squirrels who moved a lot slower. This is a view I will definitely be taking in again!!
WOW! This is a great shot Carol.Well done!
ReplyDeleteThanks Janet, definitely not taking the family next time I visit the hide, they get fed up waiting for me. I could drop them off at the cafe though!!
ReplyDeleteLovely shot Carol, very well done. Would love to know where the hide is for future reference.
ReplyDeleteThanks Barry, it is in the car park just next to the fence where the deer are. To the right hand side of the entrance down to the water.
