Chasing egrets

A walk down to the beach this morning with mum. The tide was out and it was overcast. In the distance mum spotted three egrets, so off I went trying to get as close as possible to get a picture. One of them flew off, the other one disappeared so this was the remaining one that I managed to get a picture of. Not great, as this is it zoomed to the max but if you look through a magnified glass with a squinted eye it is in fact a Little egret (Egretta garzetta) :-)

A cup of tea and some crochet when we got home. Then this afternoon we have been looking through some old family photos. Dad's home now and the fire is lit. Spoke to Mr F on the phone, who I have left home alone. All seems to be well :-)
