Alongside the Cam

Just a couple of images from this morning's walk alongside The Cam. The new lens is a joy to use and is giving me the opportunities to capture birds singing and in flight. The heron is in focus, but the cuckoo isn't! However, with such a reduction in the number of cuckoos, it was great to have heard it at a distance for about half hour and then to see it in flight! At least it is just about identifiable.

I haven't yet been able to identify the yellow flower growing on the river bank. I expect there is someone who can help with identification though - thanks Ann!
