Birds by the River





These photos were taken on a walk along the west River Lyn in Devon. I was in Devon on a family holiday and we stopped to have some lunch in a local cafe in the middle of the forest. As we sat down a flock of birds emerged from a tree, there were hundreds of them, sweeping and gliding across the sky. The owners of the cafe took full advantage of this, and put breadcrums on each of the wooden fence posts along the waterfront. As a bird descended onto the post, I fumbled around with my camera trying to take a decent photo before they flew off. Luckily I managed to snap a few photos before we hurried back on the walk, but the photos I took still hold up to my most prepared shots.
