    A few from last week, i went out to Colgagh in the evening when the light was a bit better, there was a small flock of Swallows there, i think there was a few juveniles among them learning the tricks before their long journey home.

    best thread on the site, when you have had a stressful day there is nothing better than spending 10 minutes looking at the brilliant photos and all of the hassles of the day disappear.

    I’m so happy I discovered this thread.

    @Johniebhoy. will think I’m a stalker right enough. Guy is going to wake up to about 75 like notifications :56:

    Brilliant close up pictures of swallows there, and I love the still picture of the white egret.

    The close up pictures of the glistening dew drops on the spider's web are fantastic too. It's a feat of micro engineering.

    The in flight pics are a bit blurry but he's like a bullet when he takes off, hopefully i'll get some clearer shots next time.

    Loch Colgagh on Saturday morning, stunningly beautiful when it's like this, i just can't drag myself away from it, every day seems to throw up a surprise, i've seen an Otter on a few occasions, a Fox, Kingfisher, Hares, Grebes, Ducks, Egrets, Heron, yesterdays surprise was a Snipe came up and stood around a metre from my perch, this morning there was three Geese there, it's a wee wildlife sanctuary and i love going out there early in the morning.
