Single Stonechat in the boatyard
Very poor light again, Exp 640 iso 4000 f6.0 960mm
First light at Fly Flatts on another of those dull still mornings with a calm W>2 and visibility down to around 1 mile with haze in the distance.
The first hour was poor with nothing moving and nothing on the water, we badly need this high pressure to move on. By 1000 hrs things got a bit livelier with a few Herring gulls over >W as well as Black Headeds. The Robin was still by the round tower and the savior of the day was a single Stonechat which I picked up checking the boatyard as a last resort managing to get a few images as it flitted around in among the boats.
