Len will give that one SEVERN! (for any Strictly watchers). Another great shot of a normally shy bird. Good one Pete.
 
LOl this shot brings back memories of a water rail that i watched several years ago. It was stood right in front of me and was preening and stretching and wasnt in the least bit bothered I was there. After about 15 minutes I walked away and left it there. naturally I didnt have a camera nor have I ever seen it since grrrr. You have captured him brilliantly! Thanks :t: :t:
 
:eek!: Hard enough to spot a Water Rail and take a decent pic, let alone to capture it doing and elegant stretching and get it with a reflection!!! (another :eek!:) Great job, Pete!!! :t: :t: :t:
