Best artistic (sort of) shots from Plymouth

Lining up for a bite?

These two Common Terns look as though they are having a tea party!

birdathon song 2011
At the beginning and at the end of the day, we were serenaded by the melodious song of a sparrow.



IT ISN'T TOO LATE TO DONATE!

  2. Excellent photos of the terns. I went on a whale watch and passed by tern rock on Saturday. I also saw a parasitic jaeger not to far from it either. Never imagined a jaeger on the shore. Great photos.

  3. Fantastic shots! I particularly like the third one. It seems to show some kind of courtship maneuver.

  4. Hilke, you are so smart! You are exactly right that photo #3 is some kind of courtship display. I didn't even know it(at first) because somehow my photos aren't uploading in order anymore.

    You're amazing, as always!
