Blashford Lakes 28 Sep

Visited Blashford Lakes in the afternoon today, taking along my Olympus OM-D EM-5 camera and the Sigma 50-500mm F4-6.3 APO DG lens. Although there were only a few birds on show I did manage to get a good picture of a Cormorant and also a Little Grebe, plus I managed to compile a video capturing a Tufted Duck, Little Grebes and a Great Crested Grebe diving.

First up the photographs

The Cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo)
