Just before the light went, we managed to see our first
Avocets of 2012 at
Snape. They were not at very close range, but you could just make out their distinctive white and black forms with the naked eye - and they looked much better through binoculars!
We passed a toad crossing on our journey home, with a volunteer assisting these foolhardy creatures across the road. It brought back memories of
toad-watching last Spring in South Wales. We have a
toad tunnel in our local area, to allow the toads to cross from Landseer Park to Holywells Park in safety.

You've outdone yourself with those sunset shots, Caroline - stunning! Particularly like the first with the solid, stolid, English oaks as foreground - somehow reminds me of the local scenery when I was a lad growing up in Hampshire.
what beautiful skies! Those toads are adorable! I'd love to see avocets...
Thank you, Jeremy. I would like to believe, though, that those dependable oaks have some character! Thank you, too, Juliet. We took a couple of pics of the Avocets, but the light was poor and the distance on this occasion was such that the photos weren't worth posting. Better luck next time!
Absolutely stunning captures, Caroline!
Gorgeous sunsets! Love the toads :-)
