Sodding typical

[Dudie]

Made a decision this morning to take the mountain bike out over the local country park, instead of my camera. Came to a lake and stopped for a breather when I noticed the park's elusive heron perched on a partially submerged fallen tree. Several seconds later a grey wagtail joined it on the same branch, a couple of feet in front of the heron. A few more seconds and a kingfisher turned up and perched on the neighbouring branch. One shot would have managed all three in the frame at once. Arse :bonk:

"Do you know what really grinds my gears"....Or

Just infuriating!

"Sodding Typical" - why do I always picture this as a sleepy little cotswolds village?

I gave up taking my camera on bike rides - too much to worry about - unless I was covering a race, that is...

And what a sight!

So what you couldn't take the photograph, you'd have been too busy with settings and focal lengths to take in the beauty of this particular moment had you had your camera

I had something similar happen before, but I just enjoyed the sight and felt proud to see what I did.
