Here is one of a pair of Common Tern seeing of a Red Kite that was flying directly above the Terns Nesting site. (The female Tern was sat quietly on the nest). The Kite was shoed away from the lake.
I have pictures of just 3 birds (species) today, but they are all nice in their own way.
We were at Pitstone Water this afternoon, walking round the Wildlife Trust route on the south side. There were a pair of Red Kites that buzzed us as we got out of the car in the car park (and later went on to harass a pair of Common Tern).
Here is a Eurasian Wren that's just nabbed a grub. Had to lighten this image up a little cos it was a tad dark in this section of the wood this evening
The walk round the reserve this evening was full of the sound of nature. I bumped into just 2 people on the 2.5 mile wonder this evening. Such a peaceful place. After a week's work it's nice to experience this freedom.

Been a busy old week.. Only managed to get out this evening at witching hour, and the light faded fast. Had to find things that didn't move to fast 🤣 like this Orchid. I'm no flower expert, so can't tell you what it is (purple spotted maybe).
Immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of a sunrise over the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia with this stunning photograph. Ideal as wall art for your home, office, hotel, or any hospitality interior, it brings a serene and captivating atmosphere to any space.
In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.
