Female Reed Buntings at Woolhampton.

For a change this afternoon, I dropped down to Woolhampton and camped out by the scrub near the river to try and get a picture of one of the Cetti's Warblers I could hear, but not see, never seen so many Reed Buntings in a small area.

No pictures of the target species though.

Also managed a couple of shots of a Treecreeper, the last photo illustrates how difficult they can be to spot.

Good shots, Rolf!

Sometimes we see Treecreepers on the Oak tree, but only when they are silhouetted against the sky. They are SO difficult to see otherwise. Nature has been kind to them!

A comprehensive collection of shot, including #6 which is a "Ooh, ow, hot, hot, hot!" shot

I am always amazed at how invisible the Treecreeper is. I have followed one up a tree (with my eyes!!), and then as soon as it stopped moving I lost it completely. Very effective.
