August Updates

Hey everyone! It's been a while since I last made a post due to the overwhelming fact that I have been so busy! We have been up to so much that I havent been able to upload the photos yet.

We have been all around the Lee Valley area and hired out a boat for the day, travelling along the river taking photos of animals such as Grey Heron that were only a few yards away from the boat!

We have been to RSPB Rye Meads and saw lots of wonderful wildlife including a pair of Kingfishers, White-tailed Damselflies, Migrant Hawkers and many more! The shere number of Hawkers kept me busy as I waited for some to land. We als saw Cormorants, Common Terns and a huge range of wild flowers to name a few!

At Hainault Forest we heard more than we saw due to the weather. It was a blistering hot day and we didn't get down there until late morning so most of the birds were hiding in the shade. We did however manage to see many species of dragonflies and butterflies.

We have been to many other places as well in the 3 weeks that I havent made a post! Lots of wonderful photos will be coming to the wiki soon when i get back from a short holiday to visit some family.
