Lovely shot Simon. BIF photography was not really my thing until this latest lockdown and I’ve been out and about doing more nature and wildlife photography when getting my daily exercise. I’ve certainly got a new appreciation for it now. Nice one.

Thanks. I know what you mean. My interest in wildlife was a minor one until lockdown started. My main interests were aviation and theatre photography. Not much chance of either just now so I had to adapt.

That is a beautiful shot.

Nice shot. So often you just get the back of them

Thanks. Yes, I have a lot of pictures of the back of them . I was lucky this time. Plus I stalked this one for ages waiting for the right moment.
