On my first visit for some time to Painshill, I was pleased to find that a pair of Great Crested grebes had produced four chicks.
And I was even more pleased when a Buzzard appeared over the lake.
By the River Wey near Brooklands, a Kingfisher landed right in front of me.
Then on to the New Haw gravel pit, where a Kestrel was doing a circuit.
And the Linnets were still about.
A juvenile Linnet and Goldfinch take a bath together.
And another Linnet.
On bank holiday Sunday we spent the day at the Brooklands Wings & Wheels event at Dunsfold Park. as always, the red Arrows display was spectacular.
A Hawker Hunter flying in formation with a Hurricane is not a common sight.
And a star of the show was the Vulcan bomber.
The Seahawk reminded me of the days i lived near Yeovilton in the 1960s.
A Spitfire and a Mustang, both with R R Merlin engines, provide an interesting comparison.
Gymnastics on top of an airoplane? Hmmm. Not for the faint-hearted, I think.
And finally, the Typhoon (aka Eurofighter).
