Gotcha!

One from our local NR last night. I'd barely been there 5 minutes (makes a nice change to hours of waiting about for anything to happen)

Another one from the same catch

Annoyingly it turned away to swallow, clearly didn't appreciate an audience!

Looks like it was going to get a mouthful of fishing line.

Good spot, I did wonder if that's what's wound around the pond weed and fish. I'll keep an eye out next time I'm there, hopefully it won't cause it any grief

Two very nice shots Si, great low pov

I'v just had a good look on flickr and I'd say its all weed

Thanks Phil, hopefully you're right. This pair of Grebes are a bit of a fixture on our local reserve...

Very nice set indeed, Si - quite atmospheric with that low lighting, making the Grebe really stand out
