Cheers, Laurence! Slimbridge is an interesting place. I liked the flamingoes (very photogenic, although I didn't actually manage to get any good ones
) and mrs RT liked the lapwings (she starts a new job tomorrow as Lapwing Project Officer with the RSPB).

what a great job! lapwings are lovely. the flock at the london centre kept going up, but for no reason - usually it's because there's a bird of prey. i took 340+ pics... some were even in focus! it was time to play with the new lens. managed to snap coots fighting in the water and a little grebe catching a fish. i also added a few more to my reed collection - they look lovely with the sun on them.

Nice one, sounds like you got better results than me. I'm trying to persuade Mrs RT that I need a 500mm prime lens, but I don't think she's listening.
I like your nature shots, especially the swans.

and you can get a lot closer to the birds... especially flamingos... or coots fighting

they need a lot of managing... very demanding birds.
