Cocker's Dyke

Cocker's Dyke is a dyke draining Pilling Moss and runs out onto Preesall Sands between Pilling and Knott End On Sea.I had a walk in the area earlier in the week and yesterday returned armed with the big lens hoping for some shots of the many wheatears and a sparrow hawk that I had seen.It was quieter than my first visit but I did manage a few nice images of the wheatears that were still around and luckily the female sparrowhawk put in an appearance and I was able to grab a few images as she sped by.Posted below images of the very smart looking wheatears and the sparrowhawk that was hunting the coastline.One or two also of the view across Morecambe Bay to the Lake District. A lovely area and one to which I will return. Thanks for looking in and enjoy the good weather promised for the weekend and excellent for the beginning of Preston Guild. The Preston Guild takes place every twenty years and by the time of the next one I may not be around so I intend to visit some of the many events taking place.
