Rye Meads

And so where to go this afternoon?? Do I head to Wimpole for a new scone of the month? Go to Audley End? As it was I headed to Rye Meads. It was all fairly quiet, there was a Green Sandpiper and a Peregrine about which I never saw .... but I did see a female Brambling on the walk back to the centre. There were Cetti's calling, Reed Bunting and loads of ducks all looking very dapper. 














The view from the Kingfisher hide.


No Kingfisher.... just a male and female Gadwall














I went back to the spot where the Brambling had been reported and there was one female and this little chap!





Male Shoveler

Different parts of London

I was visiting office today so slipped a camera in my jacket pocket....

This is near to South Quay.... alas when I got there at 7:30 a few weeks back it was darker and the building was much more dramatic.


South Quay DLR station the side I like.... the way home :)


Ahem not my favourite building :)




A last look shudder....



This is in Barking.....
