Here are a few images taken from the car as Ollie and I drove along the Westruther road.It had been raining hard the previous day and this temporary puddle in the field was being used by an oystercatcher to bathe in.The young rabbit was still a little too timid to venture far from home and the lapwing was busy feeding and going about its’ business.
On its' way to bathe.
Bathing.
Having a splashing time.
A spot of preening.
Bye Bye.
About Phil Mclean
Hi, my name is Phil Mclean.
I'm a nature photographer living in Berwickshire,in the Scottish Borders.I enjoy photographing all aspects of nature,from the birds and the bees,to the mammals and the trees.
I just love being out in the countryside whenever possible and preferably with a camera.
Although I do make it difficult for myself,as I'm normally accompanied by my photographic assistant, Ollie,my springer spaniel dog.
I hope you'll enjoy the pictures that I post and if you have the time and the inclination,please leave a comment.
Thanks.
