Frustrating Day

Set off early for a walk around the Lizard before the crowds turn up. Absolutely no joy for one reason or another for first 11/2 hours so  headed back to the van for a brew. Put the flask on the van step to adjust the tripod and the flask fell off and smashed.  Managed to pour a brew out before all the tea leaked away. Then inspected the flask full off silver shards, bugger and I just had a brew out of it. (still survived) At this point I am thinking it is not my day, time to wrap up and go home. How ever for some reason I persevered and did get a couple of images. (The magpie is from a couple of days ago)

Magpie

Jackdaw (test shot for exposure should I see any choughs)

Chough duly turned up although distant

Whitethroat, this bird was back and forward about every two minutes, must have a few mouths  to feed.

The Chough image set in its environment is my favourite.

Hi Bob! The scenery in these images is really nice, particularly the Chough. Thanks for sharing.
