Just a Woodpigeon

Saw this chap sitting on the fence outside the living room window, so decided to take his picture. Shot through the window, I was surprised that the sharpness and clarity were ok.

Quick update on the Turtle doves too – they’ve been seen almost daily, so I’ve got all my fingers crossed that I’ll be able to get some photos.

Visited RSPB Strumpshaw Fen this morning, which is one of my most favourite places. Why? Well, maybe because it was the first place I watched a wild otter, or because it’s the…
