Well we made it down there and the first thing we saw when we get to the cliff edge.
Yep........a Peregrine less than 100ft away preening itself.....we watched it for 15 minutes then another 10 when it decided to patrol up and down the cliffs.
It's the first one i have ever seen and although the light wasn't brilliant it would have been a fairly decent record shot.
Moved along to Seven Sisters Park/Cuckmere Haven and there are Little Egrets everywhere........some within 30 ft...........oh thats right........no camera.
I could kick myself and in fact i am going to............ouch...........lesson learned today i think.
Camera goes everywhere from now on. |
Never mind mate. There's always next time. Knowing you though, you'd have probably fallen over the top while trying to get the shot
Did your missus snigger....just a little bit, or did she just say "told you so"
