Didn't we have [a very wet time] the day we went to [Conwy]! (Part 1) - 29th March 2014

A great day for ducks?

Well.....It wasn't that bad, was it? The rain only fell like stair rods - it could've been worse, couldn't it? The wind made it feel seasonally fresh, could've been worse, couldn't it? Plus we weren't that far from Bangor and of course, the good company of the Coventry & Warwickshire RSPB Group. The day started well, even before boarding the coach with good views of the Coventry Cathedral Peregrines. Being close to the seaside brings out the "tourist" in me, hence the landscapes! Wildlife images to follow with sightings at the end of this post!


Finger on the trigger - but whose?

An Improving View?
