Moscow Island....

is in the middle of one of the largest natural meres in England, outside the Lake District.
It is a heronry...if you look top left you see a white blob on a nest.....there are 4 chicks in the nest.....

there are some extras today....a girl hiding as she is besieged by geese....and another, bad, shot of heron & nest ....all with the phone....

Ellesmere heronry is quite wellknown and in the Boathouse there are live cameras on the nests....
me and myself had a nice lunch there too....:):)

it was lovely to remember that at the top of Stuart's bucket list was a meal with the family in this place.....the only item actually achieved.....
