Tales of a South Downs fox... and other ramblings

Rabbit in a Wheatfield (and a little wag tail)

,

Well I'll get the news bit over first. There was no cormorant at the pond today. Maybe he was just hiding, but I have a feeling he's moved on to join up with the rest of his gang. All of which meant I turned the camera on some of the other local wildlife, notably this very photogenic rabbit out in the recently harvested wheat fields.








The other creature to catch my eye was a fledgling pied wagtail, which was foraging along the water's edge. These bold little birds seem to be everywhere at the moment and were due some blog space.

Mick, I always enjoy seeing them. Cheeky little things they are, and so active.

Darko, I love it when they try to hide by standing upright and not moving!

Nice rabbit shots! Probably wondering where the shelter has gone!

Adele, I think they had been harvesting that morning. The combine was up in the next field when I took this.
