About Me

My photo
I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

Moorhens

 


These are the 2 Moorhens that are at the pond. They are very shy and I was lucky to get this photo! This photo was taken on 25th April and I have only seen them a few times as they hide up the back. I am pretty sure they have had at least 2 babies, but they stay well hidden! Unlike our Duck and Coot friends!
