HFF, Carol! Nice shot and PiPs!
All the hides I knew were in a far worse state of repair than these. They look brand new.

Ecobird club has replied to Andy Rodker club
Thank you very much Andy. Work was completed on Steart Marshes some time in 2014 so they date from somewhere around then. They are in quite good condition, although some of the natural fencing and wicker wildlife has not fared too well. There are a number of hides on the site.

HFF and have a good weekend

I love the detail you have captured in the grasses Carol and what a lovely perspective. The wispy clouds above the hide look beautiful. I also like the PiPs showing more detail of the hide and grasses.

Thank you Steve. The hides date back to about 2014, although I believe there have been one or two newer ones than this. The nature reserve is run by the Wildlife and Wetland Trust and is very well maintained

Ecobird club has replied to Percy Schramm club
Thank you very much Percy. The hides date back to 2014 but is well maintained. There are a number of hides on this nature reserve and is a good place to visit. As you would expect the nature reserve looks quite different than it did in 2014 now that the grasses etc have become more established.

I love the PoV in the main photo it really does justice to the colour contrasts. Also like the contrast between the smooth texture of the modern hide and the rough and tumble grasses and flowers. Superb main shot and pips.

HFF Carol, have a good w/e

Hi Armando. No this is a bird watching hide on the local nature reserve. It is a lovely place and there are several hides around the site. There are also wicker birds and animals including a pair of boxing hares there.

Enjoy the rest of the week and thank you for the kind comments
