I should be talking about the demise of the Conservative Party as we have known it this morning. Everyone else is.<\/p>\n

I could be watching some hopeless party spokesperson wittering on about the poverty of their political offer on the morning's politics shows.<\/p>\n

Or, I could be looking at some images taken last night during an evening walk at the Kingfisher Bridge Nature Reserve and its immediate environs.<\/p>\n

There were three of us on the walk, me, my son Thomas who is working with me on the video project and my wife.<\/p>\n

Thomas was using a Sont RX10 camera with a lens of up to 600mm. I was using the Sony A7iv we are now using to make videos - because learning about it is a key part of that project. I had a maximum focal length of 70mm.<\/p>\n

Thomas went for birds in the evening light. This is a chiff-chaff:<\/p>\n

A kestrel was looking for its last meal of the day:<\/p>\n

A little egret was heading to its roost - which is not on this site.<\/p>\n

He also filmed this footage of cows on the banks of the River Cam in ate evening light from a drone:<\/p>\n
