Spring is in the Air

Spring has really kicked in with T shirt weather in Suffolk today. 2012 nest finding has been very successful so far and includes Song Thrush, Blackbird, Robin, Treecreeper, Chaffinch, Wren and Long-tailed Tit, quite a few with eggs already. I really enjoyed photographing a Treecreeper frantically collecting nest material today, the nest is in an old outbuilding. Photo's below also show a stunning complete Long-tailed Tit nest, a pair of Egyptian Geese with young which we noticed along the Deben estuary at Melton this morning and a Hen Harrier which flew past us as we drove towards Bawdsey 2 days ago.

Delighted once again to receive my latest copy of the popular journal 'British Birds' and to see my full frame shot of a Hawfinch I took last Winter on the front cover! ;-)
