No head for heights

It was below freezing this morning and so I headed over to the local gravel pits to see if there was anything worth photographing, but not before seeing if I could freeze bubbles over the bird bath.  I had reasonable success but could have done with a spare pair of hands and unfortunately they were on the golf course.

I did see an Egret but not before it saw me and cleared off.  If I had recognised its call I'd have been a little more vigilant but I certainly didn't expect it to be up a tree.

I wish I could have got the tops of the trees in.
