Ducklings and Goslings

A few pictures of some young water birds today, ducklings and goslings to be precise. The ducklings are from two broods busily feeding below and in (yes, in) Aldermaston Lock on the Kennet and Avon Canal. The goslings I spotted on the River Kennet between Aldermaston Wharf and Aldermaston Village.

The Flying Scotsman steam locomotive returns to West Berkshire

Last weekend I posted a video of the Flying Scotsman as well as pictures of the Flying Scotsman. This weekend the famous steam locomotive returned to West Berkshire, allowing me to capture additional footage just down the track near Frouds Lane. This time I used both a stationary camera on the ground as well as my DJI Phantom 3 drone. I then combined the footage from both weekends into this video:

Hopefully there will be further visits in the future for more videos and pictures.

Nothing but the truth…
