The freeze goes on!

The cold weather is here to stay by the looks of it, the forecast today (7th Jan) suggests it will last at least another 10-14 days!
The birds at the feeder site always look pleased to see me, the Sing Thrush and Blackbirds are staying within a few feet as I top up the food stock, and not flying off like they usually would.
Steve Blain and I went out on an Owl prowl and got some great views and images of a Tawny Owl, also saw lots of Muntjac.
I have been out with the cameras all day every day since Christmas, the Fens have been great for Barn Owl, Geese, Kestrels and Whooper Swans. I also had a great session with a pair of Stonechats and a juvenile Grey Heron who, because everywhere is iced-up, was catching mice in the rough grass.
Lots of new images on my Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/nigelblake/
