River Views #36: Some more Geese I


Okay, yesterday I said that I didn’t have any more Canada Geese shots, but when I looked through some photos I had sorted out to reprocess, I found two nice long-distance shots. This is one of them, from June 2009 – a somewhat moody photo of three Geese in some rough waters on the river.

Pigeon Feeder

Just a fun video in between – now we know who is responsible for hoovering up all the corn from the bird feeder! The Great and Blue Tits may play a part in it, but now we’ve got visual evidence that the Wood Pigeons seem to be the ones eating the most of it :-).

Return of the Blimp 2014 Edition


I’ve heard the familiar deep engine buzz several times in the last few days and saw it flying in the distance, but only today I had a chance to take the traditional first photo of our local WDL Blimp – and they have a new sponsor this year after they had to fly “solo” just with their own logo for a couple of years. It’s terribly expensive to actually fly with it, but the “Zeppelin” is one of the trademarks of our region and it’s always great too see it flying again after the winter hiatus.

River Views #36: One more Duck


And with this non-Mallard Duck, I’m currently out of River Views photos, because I have not yet managed to reprocess more older photos. I think I’ll switch back to the City Views for now and post all those photos I actually have sorted out, processed and ready.
