Caturday morning

The middle pair of grebes on the pond are apparently still courting:

The bottom grebes, having abandoned their nest, are keeping as far from the banks (and cameras,damnit!) as possible.
She, with chick on her back, is on the right in this slideshow.

  1. Really missing the wild life on this river. No swans,single Grebe, and very few ducks in York. Nothing at all, apart from Sand Martins between York and Ripon. Lots of ducks at Ripon.
