Bullfinch

A short visit the the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust site at Arundel, targets being the Bullfinches that have been reported recently and the chance of a Water Rail shot. The upshot was that I was distracted by the ducks but finally got around to walking the boardwalk in the reed bed. The Water Rails were in evidence, I saw four but none well enough to get a photograph.  Finally I located 7 Bullfinches but by this time there were plenty of visitors about and the birds wouldn't settle. Managed a decent shot of a female, the males were definitely less confiding.
