It was a very wet morning, so I did not go out until about 11.00 when I got the bus to Poole and then travelled by train to Weymouth. I walked along the seafront, past this row of coloured houses
and then took a stroll in Greenhill Gardens to look at the wonderful flower display
and then past some Art Deco buildings
On arrival at Lodmoor nature reserve, I first saw this Bar-tailed Godwit wading in shallow water
Dunnock standing on a bench in the reserve
The head of a distant Great White Egret was poking up out of the reeds
The Great White Egret flew away!
Little Egret and Godwit in the shallow water
Lapwing on land
and another Lapwing at the edge of the lagoon
Great White Egret standing on a narrow spit of land in the lagoon
Cattle Egret in the distance
View of part of Lodmoor nature reserve
Sandwich Tern in the water
and then in flight
There were lots of Golden Plovers on the other side of Lodmoor
Golden Plovers and a Little Egret
Golden Plovers and three Dunlin
Golden Plover in the foreground and houses on the hill in the background
Black-tailed Godwit standing in the lagoon
Pretty blossom in front of the water
Godwit with an itch!
Little Egret with a little fish
I walked back to the station along the windy sea front with some tankers on the horizon
