This is the sequel to my visit to Shapwick Heath on the Somerset Levels. Last week I posted photographs from the morning. This week I'm posting images taken after some lunch at Eco-Friendly Bites (at the Avalon Visitor Centre).
Most of the action at Greylake seemed to be in the car-park. Since the flooding, the RSPB has put out extra feeding arrangements at the car-park and in the picnic area. The local Reed Bunting have been taking full advantage since last year.

Once the camera appeared, a Robin presented itself – couldn't miss the photo-opportunity!

Eventually, I did manage to tear myself away from the car-park and go along the boardwalks into the reserve proper.
Early afternoon is a quiet time and I went straight to the hide. It's very comfortable there and a sit down seemed called for.

... and the 'odd one out' – a female Shoveler.

There was a male around, but he stayed well away from the hide.
