Portland Harbour 31st December

Finally managed to get down to Dorset today to catch up with the Brunnich's Guillemot.The bird was showing well and close in at times but the wind and rain wasn't great for getting photographs.

After watching the Guillemot I headed to Radipole for the Glossy Ibis which has been feeding on a flooded playing field. The weather had got a bit better so I did manage to get better pics of this.

I've neglected Grasshoppers and Crickets over the last few years and as most of my pics of them are on slide I decided this year I would try and get some new pics on Digital camera. So over the last few months I've been to various locations to update them.
