Went to see my friends, the Great Crested Grebes, this morning. The mating dance is over and the important fun part is over. Eggs are in the nest and it is time to wait for hatching.

I believe I am lucky this year, since the nest is very visible and hopefully will give me some good shots when the nest comes to life. Only risk element is how fast the tall grass is growing. To be continued ...
