Stiths On Sunday

Hi,

A productive day at Stithians. I started off in the main hide where a Gull was eating what looked like a rather large trout for lunch. Checked on the young Buzzard can't believe he hasn't fledged yet. The young GC grebe is a quick learner tucking into fish already. A Black Headed gull and Swallow also feature today. More images from today can be seen here http://groups.yahoo.com/group/stithians_wildlife/

That was a huge Trout was that Bob. I remember a few months ago i was in the same hide with Brian Mcgeough, he photographed a Cormorant with a Trout so big it couldnt swallow it. It had to eat it bit by bit... See you soon mate.
