Pacific Diver. A lifer and a real rarity.



Black Redstart.



Glaucous Gull.



Eider. Just loved the colour reflected in the water.



Oystercatcher.



Iceland Gull



Gadwall.




Ferruginous Duck.



Gaganey.



Scaup pair.



Grey Phalarope.



Song Thrush.



Reed Bunting.



Feral Pigeon.



Great-crested grebes. my favorite bird to photograph.

Some of the birds i managed to capture this year, not necessarily great images but i enjoyed taking them.

Beautiful pictures Nom
I loved the little chubby first one, and the Iceland Gull looks like his wings are made of lace. Lovely.

Super selection, Nom. I've seen all over the years, except the Pacific Diver, never seen one of those. Great to get the life tick.
