Bangers and mash - you can't beat it.

Lovely spring morning photographing birds and bangers & mash for lunch - does it get any better?

Most of morning I have been at natipnal nature reserve at Calke Abbey. The plan was to try and capture blue tits and great tits. I am not too sure how that worked out. I then went a walk through the woodlands and it was devine. Well sort of. At the moment the bluebells are out and I am not a real fan. A lot of other people are. One wpmen asked me if I had come to photograph the bluebells? I suppose having a 700 mm lens on huge tripod over my shoulder prompt this - it seemed a little strange to me. Anyway.

So in the wpods I spent quote a lot of time following a greater spotted woodpecker. This is a wonderful bird and fills the woods at this time of year with the tell tale rattatatt as they drill holes in trees.

So fortified by lunch I may go and explore the gardens or maybe not. Decisions decisions. I'm on line at:
