I said I was going somewhere different and I did. I ventured North to the Queen Elizabeth II park where a fellow photographer had said there was a wetland worthy of a visit. Indeed it was worthy and I will go back again real soon!The main focus of today’s images is the dabchicks. There were some there with youngsters but they stayed too far away for me to get a good shot of them. We also saw white-faced herons, royal spoonbills, kingfisher, tui, goldfinches, greenfinches and many more!I also heard and saw, but didn’t manage to photograph, frogs. Loud noisy frogs! I was hoping to get a dabchick eating one but alas I had to make do with it eating a fish. Such is life 😉
