Everybody Loves Chicks

I took another trip down Swanpool Lake last night. It had cleared up after a miserable day so in the evening I spent an hour or two photographing the signets in the last remaining light. There are 6 cygnets in total.

Pendennis Point to Swanpool Lake

Yesterday I took a trip down to Pendennis Castle and walked along the coast through the local beach the Swanpool lake. I found there were some Cygnets there and some Coot chicks.
Here are a couple shots I took:

Prussia Cove

Today I went to Prussia Cove again in search of the Kestrel. The project is completed so this was merely for fun.
The weather wasn't on my side today as it was raining but I still stuck around and it started to brighten up. I only saw the kestrel twice and both times he was being attacked by the Swallows in the area so he didn't stay for long! However, just before the place where the Kestrel hangs is a cliff side where a group of Fulmars roost so I got a couple of shots of these as I haven't before.
After actually spending some time with these birds I really started to like them, and I think I could get some nice shots showing their behaviour so I will try and keep this going!

The deadline for it was today so I thought I would enter the images online to see what you think.

Regents Park

Sorry I haven't posted any sooner, I had a big deadline so I was working hard for that.
Last week I took another trip up to Regents Park, London again for another shoot for my negotiated project.
This time was a lot better than the first time, because I was able to see the chick of the Heron and I focused on other wildlife and not just the Grey Heron.

Here are a couple images that I took;
