Unwanted Invader at Heron's Nest

Intentions were a visit to Marazion and then Stithians Resevoir, the latter was foiled by the weather. On arrival at Marazion the Heron's nest was paid an unwelcome visit by a Raven, the chicks left to fend for themselves managed to persuade the Raven to go elsewhere. Twenty minutes or so later the mother bird returned with plenty of food. I had the polariser on to check it out, pity the sun kept going in/out., however the swan image is a good example of the nice blue sky a polariser can produce. As for the other images not being super sharp the wind was gusting making conditions difficult all day.
