Apr 13th.Moore Nature reserve

Another absolutely gorgeous day....almost sunbathing weather! (17 degrees) We walked to all three hides in search of the Iceland Gulls.....we did manage to get a glimpse of them, although this was at a fair distance. I managed to get some images of the Little Grebe,Coot and Canada Goose. On my gentle amble back I spotted some wild mushrooms (or it could of been toadstools) As the sun was still warm later that day we dropped in at Meols in the hopes of catching the Spoonbill that had been reported there....we were in luck!.....I managed to get a shot of them, although they were at a distance....this was my first encounter with these lovely birds.
