Cattle Egret at Doxey Marshes

 We were back at Doxey Marshes on the weekend on quite a damp day, which wasn't the best for taking photos with the new camera. Anyway here are some of the birds we saw:

A flock of canada geese:


A mallard duck:


Here is a cattle egret, a pretty rare bird in the UK (the white bird in the middle):




I also managed to get a few good photos of a heron and great egret in flight:






There is a good size comparison here between the larger great egret and the smaller cattle egret:

Here's another photo of the great egret:

Finally, here's a photo of two gadwall and a shoveler:

I should have a new camera trap post out soon, hopefully on the weekend. That's all for this week's post and thanks for reading.
