Hobby at Blashford Lakes, September 14th 2008

Visited Blashford lakes because Hobby had been reported there, infact was told it often perches on a post right infront of the hide, however I had to visit a couple of times to see this, got a picture of the Green Sandpiper a couple of days before, on one occasion the Hobby was perched at the top of a distant tree on the other side of the lake, went for a closer view, as soon as I got to the other side the Hobby promptly flew off and landed on the post! One day before work though I managed to time it right.
