HOLIDAY! :D
I'm off in Ireland this week for my dad's birthday and will be going to see the puffins again. The puffin photos went down well last time so hopefully they'll be as obliging again and I will be able to get even better ones.

Dad and I got the ferry over yesterday and on the way to Swansea we stopped at a place called Symonds Yat, a very interesting place if you're ever near by. They have some nesting Perigrine Falcons there which we did see, but they were too far away for me to photograph. They have a youngster in the cliff at the moment who should be ready to fly within the next 10 days. We should be stopping there again on the way back from Ireland next week; maybe the baby will be flying by then...

Seeing as I couldn't get a photo of the Perigrine (which was what I really wanted) I had to busy myself with the smaller birds. This was actually good as I've been trying to get some photos of those birds in my garden (with no success) for quite some time. Here is what I got:

As you can see I also got a very cute Bank Vole which I was happy about. I have a couple more photos from that day so watch this space! In the meantime, any comments on these would be very welcome.

In other news I've also jumped on the band wagon and joined 500px. You can find me under the same username: ERB20

Time for a new feature I think, here are some of my recent faves. They all have less that 50 :+fav:'s so give them some :love::
