Murmuration at RSPB Fairburn Ings

 

Had a training walk at the reserve today. The autumn colours were spendid against the blue sky.

I spent some time at the Pickup hide.

At the kingfisher screen a  male kingfisher was having a preen.

I stayed for the murmuration. A view along the River Aire.

The lagoon just as the sun was starting to set and starlings started to arrive.
