| | | What are these, please...
Hi all.
During a holiday in Devon, near Paignton last year, I spotted 2 birds, which I think I may have identified, but I would like opinions please... I dare not say what I guessed them to be, I don't want to show you all what a muppet I am this early in the game...
They were quite far away (the 2 birds in the foreground...)
Well, here is a pic taken using a Canon 30D with a 300m... http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...c/_MG_0045.jpg
Thanks  |

Hi DemonTraitor and a warm welcome to WAB. They look like Egrets to me, you can check them against images in the Gallery.

Hi and welcome to WAB
Your birds are Little Egrets. Is that what you thought?
