Perfect balance

Someone called these birds "The Audrey Hepburn of the bird world".
A very good description of these elegant Avocets.
I took lots of photos today at North Cave Wetlands.
The sun came out just after we got there, which warmed things up a bit, but that sneaky cold wind is back.
Not many people about considering it is a Bank Holiday Weekend.
Lots of noisy black headed gulls nesting on the islands in the lagoons. The young ones are so cleverly camouflaged you can hardly see them. ( see extra photo)
I was amazed at the number of different wild flowers,including some lovely little wild pansies.the ones which stood out though were the large swathes of brilliant blue Germander Speedwell. ( see extra photo)
Decided my blip must be the avocet though, and I chose this shot as I liked the sun shining on the rocks and green weed, which I thought made a better composition than a close up of the bird it's own.
Fresh asparagus for tea, which we stopped for on the way back.
I hope you have all had a good day.
Thank you for your nice comments and stars for yesterday's blip. Did you like the song too?
Another blast from the past!
