IT'S THE WOODY N TURTLE SHOW?

Woody made an appearance, all be it a brief one yesterday. I heard him drumming while I was watching a pair of coot's nesting, so off I went in totally the wrong direction - funny how sound travels around a hollow, after my brief excursion I finally met up with a couple of other watchers who kindly pointed me in the right direction, 2 shots and off he went ( camera shy ! ) well at least I know what to look for now.

The coot's are nesting well, I have enjoyed watching them over the last few days one fetching n carrying while the other sits & tidy's up the nest - constantly rearranging twigs & bit's of reed it really is nice to watch. 

I had been told that there where terrapins in the lake but I didn't think they where this big, it must be the size of a dinner plate!

some of my best shots of the squiggles.  

I hope you enjoyed your visit, by for now :)
