Kingfisher at Marazion after Hayle and Stithians

Up early today forecast sunshine with odd shower. I was greeted with a torential downpour on opening the curtains. Thought bugger this still going out. Got to Hayle which was windswept so not much happening there. Around to Marazion again windy, so off home for dinner. Then set off for Stithians again very quiet so headed off back to Marazion. Sunny with no wind, at last. Well the sunny bit lasted about ten minutes!!! At Marazion today Waterrail, Kestrel, Kingfisher, Sparrowhawk, Bittern and thousands of starlings at dusk which was again a great spectacle to watch.  Todays pictures:

Wren at Stithians Southern Cut Off

Buzzard doing a nice fly past at Marazion

Kingfisher (he was using the post to stun the fish before gulping them down

KF again, but shot with much higher ISO settings as the light was rubbish. This KF was using the post yesterday and today so anyone which a digiscope and some luck should be able to get some great shots.
