More from the gloom of Draycote! - 23rd May 2014

Grey Heron over grey water on a grey day!

Some how, I missed these images taken during my birding / biking tour of Draycote Water yesterday!

The following Great Crested Grebe caught my eye, mainly because it was swimming around "phalarope style"! It had caught an enormous Perch and probably had problems consuming it. I watched it for over 30 minutes, swimming around in rapid circles, occasionally diving with the fish and not intending to give it up! When I left, the fish had still not been consumed!
