Here's a pic of the osprey bringing more material back to the nest... 
This was on Sunday morning and you can see it was a bit hazier than the Saturday. The buildings in the background have almost disappeared.
Here's a couple of shots taken from the Shallow Water hide while hoping that the ospreys might come closer:
Blackthorn blossom... 
A gadwall... 
And here are my spoonbill shots...      
"Time's up! Adios!"
They are all cropped except the one with splashes in the background (from a coot hurtling past).
