At Gosforth last weekend I had some great views of several Little Grebes
Looks like Male Sticklebacks were the main course for adults
These 2 young Little Grebes kept appearing but were always chased off by the adult Little Grebes although they were smaller. Note the one in the background with its long neck which when side by side was much longer than the adults also. Suppose its a bit like when Peter (Crouchy) and I go out for a drink
Then there was the Reed Warblers which I never get sick of seeing or hearing
I did get down to Hartlepool but thankfully missed the Ladders Fiasco and walked into a well behaved twitch of about 50 in the kind Doctors Garden in beautiful sunlight. 20mins later after several good views the skies opened for a torrential downpour. Stepped into the garage then came out when it stopped. If only all viewing of birds was as easy as this, but then again there would be no challenge but an occasional one like this is quite good. I wont bore you with my "pin sharp" shots of the Robin but havent seen many flight shots so heres one (LOL)

Apologies for what might seem a daft question, but where in Gosforth was this?
You always capture the Reed Warblers well John. As for "Megas" in flight...........well.
Roger,
It is Gosforth Nature Reserve, unfortunately it is membership only.
John,
I get the feeling that you thought my "mega in flight" was not quite as pinsharp as it could have been or am I just misunderstanding your post ;=)
If that's the one that is NWT I'm a member so will need to check out access sometime. Thanks.
Roger
Great shots of the Reed Warbler
No Ladders?! Some people have it far too easy I reckon. Cheers Brian.
