Here is a few more of the Great Crested Grebe at
Stithians Reservoir. I thoroughly enjoyed the day and pay credit to the
CBWPS reserve warden Simon Taylor and the group who regularly
birdwatch and contribute to the feed station. I have only visited the reserve a couple of times but I intend to do more there as I want to photograph the
GC Grebe with the chicks riding on the parents back.
This last image was the final position of a courtship display right in front the hide, unfortunately the main display was carried out end on to the hide instead of side on. However it was staggering to watch, I felt so
privileged to witness the event.

Once again amazing Images,well done Sam.
ReplyDeleteStithians is a magic place,where you can lose yourself in time.Perhaps that's why the Great Crested Grebe choose to visit.I agree with so many people when Simon Taylor's name comes up.He is the large part of Stithians.

ReplyDeleteGreat Grebe shots Sam, Birds like these breathe life into Stithians with a little help from a great Warden.
