Before the deluge

It was a dull day so I had a quick trip back to the nature reserve which I visited on 13th November. I wanted to see if anyone had seen the bird of prey and listed it on the notices at the entrance. Happily they confirmed a suggestion that it may be a Marsh Harrier. There have been daily sitings of one so I am assumng that is what I saw. 
The sky got darker and darker and as I rushed back to the car hearing thunder, the heavens opened so not much by way of a blip but I quite liked the reflected patterns of these grasses. A bit different anyway!
