Little Egret hunting I just love the way these birds shuffle their feet on the water bed to disturb the little worms and fish. This one was a very successful hunter.

  1. Looks like you had a blast! Isle of Wight is a name I've heard before, but don't really know anything about it. Care to elaborate? Posted 7 years ago
    1. I did! About time I got out and about. The Isle of Wight is just off the coast of Hampshire, a delightful little island just teeming with wildlife. One day I shall get a photo of the red squirrel, there are no grey squirrels on the island which is great. Not sure it is coming up so well on the geotagging, mine is showing blank, but it could just be me! Posted 7 years ago
      1. Geotag looks fine here, which browser do you use? Posted 7 years ago
        1. Google Chrome. I am just getting the bottom part of the map. Posted 7 years ago
          1. I do believe I've seen that happen once or twice. Usually just refreshing the page (F5) fixes it for me. Another possible cause may be ad or tracking blockers partly blocking the map. Posted 7 years ago
            1. Tried refreshing but no. It's only on mine I can't see it all...everyone elses is fine! Never mind. Posted 7 years ago
