I thought I would have a trip to Slimbridge as the sky was clear and it looked like it was going to be a great day. All of the images were taken from my favourite hide there the "Robbie Garnett" hide.
This is a great hide where the windows are wide enough and the sun comes from behind for most of the day.

It was particularly great to get some images of Whooper Swans. Slimbridge is particularly famous for its Bewicks Swans that visit in the winter, but these are a much rarer sight at Slimbridge.
Seeing a flight of thirteen Cranes' on a fly-past was an awesome sight and on its own made the trip worthwhile.
