Moorhen and Merganser

What was another fresh but lovely spring day, also gave nice lighting conditions for the camera lens too. 

The shy Moorhen ventured into the moat and got as close as it would dare. 

The Red Breasted Merganser was sunning himself close to the Merryton bridge,  being on the right side of the sun was useful for some nice shots.

 Popeye meanwhile was standing guard over the nest.
