"Walking on Water"


"Walking on Water"......Pied Wagtail on ice

It's a brilliantly sunny November morning and I decide to visit Elton Reservoir, it must be well over 15 years since my last visit. The city is humming in the distance, but I'm content not having to cope with the stress and rigours of work any longer

I'm sitting under a grass bank trying to keep inconspicuous, looking, watching, listening identifying the various bird species, the early morning sun's melting the the ice on the frozen edge of the reservoir when, a Pied Wagtail drops in just in front of me, it appears to be walking on water, I fire off a burst of 20 images in 2 seconds, then... 

I just watch and enjoy.
