A return visit to Richmond Park today. No new sightings but a chance to capture some images for future posts .... so here is an 'ad hoc' selection for now.
Robin (Erithicus rubecula)
Great Tit (Parus major)
Various signs new growth - Rhododendrons in bud and a few in flower plus the fragrant Viburnum 'Dawn' Camelia.
Double Egyptian (Alopochen aegyptiaca)
Feral Pigeon (Columba livia [domest.])
The Lookout (Red Deer Stag).
Oh, my how pretty! So many signs of Spring. I always enjoy your posts, Frank. Thank you for sharing.

I know I've said it before - but your Robin is so much prettier than ours. Great photos today!
ReplyDeletequite a productive day - all sorts of good photos. Love the robin and the red deer. Great photos !
ReplyDeleteBeautiful images, Frank!! Your Robin looks different than mine.
ReplyDeleteFrank, these are all so very beautiful!!! I'm an avid bird watcher [well, as much as I can, when I'm out driving around]....and your nature photos, the flowers, the birds, the deer--------simply breathtaking!

Hope you're having a great day! Thanks for stopping by yesterday. Your company is always welcomed!!
The Double Egyptian is really good Frank.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos Frank, your Robin and Great Tit posed in a much better position and light than mine did :)
ReplyDeleteLovely to see all the pink blooms. I have Viburnum Dawn in my garden, she is always such a welcome sight when there is not much else to see.
Lovely stag photo too!
Excellent selection Frank and I love the portrait of the Egyptian as well as the robin...
ReplyDeleteHI Frank..lovely flowers coming into bloom ,and I guess I can think about what I have to look forward to instead of being envious!! : }
ReplyDeleteI love the bottoms up of the Mallards feeding, and the beautiful irridescent colors of the pigeon!!
Thanks Lois.
ReplyDeleteHi Shelley. I won't disagree with you.
Hi Jill. Every day brings something in front of the lens.
Hi Cindy. Yes, yours is much larger.
Hi Hootin' Anni. Nice to hear from you and I appreciate the compliments.
Cheers Roy.
Hi Jan. The Robin was very obliging but the Great Tit took a little bit of work. I've always been fond of of 'Dawn'.
Thanks Chris.
Hi Grammie. No doubt I'll find a few more flowery images over the coming weeks just to tickle your fancy.
