    Enjoyed this video. I went over the this place on Sunday we got there late but plan to return this sat. We saw 3 spoonbills and a Marsh Harrier. We did see a barn owl but now thinking it could have been the short eared owl.

    • @JPLamoureuxsTravels
      @JPLamoureuxsTravels  3 роки тому

      Thank you for your kind words 😊... Shortys are bigger and darker than a Barny, barnys are like ghosts compact and pale. If you look through my videos here I have one of a shorty 👍🏼... I heard about the spoon bills didn't see any however but I always like to save something for next time lol 😂.... Thanks for watching and commenting 😉👌..... JP

    A useful introduction to the reserve. Photographically it's a bit of a no-hoper for me as my longest reliable lens is only 250mm (I've got a 400 but I can't seem to get any decent photos out of it). Been there once and was treated to a nice fly-by of a male Hen Harrier - the only male one I've ever seen - flew quite close at the car park just after I'd got out of the car. If my M-I-L hadn't phoned me when I was on my way there I'd have been parked sooner and had my camera out in time to get a decent picture. Sodding relatives.

      Well if you fancy going anytime i'll loan you a 300 and 1.4 TC or a 100 to 400 and we can have a mooch 😉👍🏼.... Thank's foor the comment buddy! 😉😊
