Good Morning all
I havent been out on many walks of recent for a variety of reasons, but one day it was nice enough and I was feeling good so I went for a short walk by the Pond in Buttonwood Park , my plan being taking my longest and heaviest lens and trying to catch some shots of birds on or around the pond I was going to chill and stroll around various spots on the pond for an hour or so.

Well as often is the cace the best laid plans go astray not long after getting there I got a call from the Grandson who had bene going to pick up our Granddaughter from school, that he was not feeling well and could I pick her up, which of course I agreed to so my visit to the pond was a lot shorter than I originally planned but I got a few shots worth sharing

Plenty of Seagulls on the pond, and between then and the geese they can be quite noisy, not perhaps the best spot if your wanting peace and quiet lOL

Dang, steady hands man! Stabilized sensors work some miracles but that's still a heck of a lot of MMs to hand hold and get sharp.
