A scene I'd been hoping to find for some time and finally got the chance back in the summer at RSPB Minsmere. This Robber Fly was preoccupied enough to let me get a few stacked shots before flying off.

Just enough time to post a #TwosDay capture, which is a pair of Egyptian Geese that came down to visit @RSPBMinsmere today.
These are just rough screen grabs of the back of the camera, I will sort all the photos when I return home on Friday.

Yesterday morning @RSPBMinsmere
it was busy at Island mere hide with members of the heron family feeding well. The Bittern, Great White Egret, and the Grey Heron were putting on a show who could catch the biggest fish, in this case Rudd and Roach. I think the Bittern edged it😉👍

This is what happens when a Bittern takes up residence in an area of reed beds in front of Island mere hide on the left the last 10 days. A GW Egret kept bothering the bittern by going into those reeds on the edge of the mere to fish. Excellent territorial behaviour response 😊👍@rspbminsmere

Bearded tit female quietly moving through the reeds when I was under Island mere hide @RSPBMinsmere
while I was watching the Bitterns. It was lovely to see her, as we all go for the males, but I think the females are as beautiful in their own right. What do you think 🤔 😉😊

This Bittern has occupied a part of the reed bed left of Island mere hide @RSPBMinsmere
Over two days in about 5/6 meters X 2 meters strip of reed bed, has repelled all that came close to it. A GW Egret tried to invade the patch, this was the response. He/she will not budge 😂

While waiting for the Bittern to show today, we had a visit from the wonderful male Kingfisher at island mere @RSPBMinsmere
I decided not to crop it to much, otherwise you loose the surroundings in which he visits at least several times a day.

Excellent start to the Autumn Bittern season here @RSPBMinsmere
Today over an six hour session, we had seventeen bittern flights, with two of the bitterns being very big, likely to be males. The weather was not great, but just for a moment the misty clouds filtered some sunlight.

This has to be one of my favourites from this years Bittern watch/observations. From under the hide at Island mere @RSPBMinsmere
early spring, shows the beautiful blue lores on a male Bittern ready for the breeding season, albeit he was a young bird he is an excellent example😊👍

I though I would add this post, with what I think is one of my best captures in my photographic life. Not a pretty sight to see, but Stoats are intelligent creatures and have amazing strength and endurance capabilities that enables them to travel miles and carry large prey like Rabbits.
