Peacock
We had a trip out to the coast at Goswick Sands in Northumberland today. Little was produced in the way of birds. Highlights: Skylark over the sand dunes and golf course, Reed bunting, Pied Wagtail, Meadow Pipit, Sand Martin and Swallow.
On the way back we stopped off at Rock Midsteads Organic Farm Shop near Alnwick. As we pulled up in the car park I heard the unmistakable call of a Peacock. Peering over a wall, I found this very handsome chap. Unfortunately he didn't display his feathers for me! We have been here a few times now, but this is the first time I've seen a Peacock there.

Isn't it nice to photograph a bird that isn't mostly brown? He's gorgous and doesn't he know it too! For me, I can just imagine how exotic a place must be to produce a native bird that looks like that!
