Went over to Marshside RSPB near Southport on Sunday at first light, my first visit with a camera. I opened the hide flap to be great my a site to raise any bird photographers spirits

This is not the easiest place to photograph in the morning with the hide facing east and the rising sun creating backlighting. After a couple of Black tail godwit shots I decided to concentrate on the abundance of wild waterfowl but it would have to be potraits and there was not enough light for action. So here are some of the ducks that came my way during the morning.
A teal drake
Pintail drake

Shoveler a duck species I have never really got any shots of before.


not forgeting the females of course

and some whistling wigeon to finish off.
An immature bird

and a well grazed adult drake
