What gets me is that there are two low level viewing slots in that screen (for wheelchair users) which I find better for making good pictures, not great, but better. I've never seen anyone else using them to get a lower viewpoint. But because one of the blokes had his tripod and camera bag blocking them yesterday I was stuck with a high level slot. Anyway. This is what they were looking at.
So, being annoyed with the tripod brigade and being restricted by the viewing screen I went for a wander and stalked a lone avocet on the marsh proper, which I left alone without getting close enough for a shot when I saw it had a limp. Then I managed to get surprisingly close to a crowing crow.
I was hampered by the angle of the light, and the branches obscuring the bird just like I was with a male reed bunting that I got equally close too.
But my favourite picture of the day was one I'd taken earlier of some diagonals and verticals.
