Our local Barred Owls have been active lately. This one moved around to five different locations last night between my yard and my neighbor's.

#TheWaitingGame is something many wildlife photographers will have experienced when trying to get the perfect shots. This series was 7 days of visiting a spot I knew a Kingfisher would turn up at eventually for #BirdOfTheDay #birds #thegardenjungle #wildlifephotography #UKwildlife #birdphotography

For today's theme of #TheWaitingGame, this Mute Swan spotted in our local harbour is just driftin' on the still water. Not sure what it is waiting for.

A grey heron standing in our local lake, its patience eventually rewarded with a little snack. I've wanted to catch a shot like this for some time so required some patience on my part too, which is not something I'm especially good at. 🙂
