The Water Pipit is a nice picture and you were quick to photograph the Sand Martins they are very difficult birds to capture.

Nice photo Ashley. I think your Water Pipits are Rock Pipits though.
ReplyDeleteThanks Paul, you can blame Simon Taylor (Stiths warden) for the pipit mistake I wasnt sure so I asked him.
