Shelduck family takes to the water on the Cuckmere river estuary, East Sussex, UK last Sunday, 11 June 2017

 What a fine brood this pair of Shelducks have raised.  And what a joy to see them on the river.

 Canada geese showed an interest but caused the ducklings no harm.

Other birds included lots of Goldfinches, Little Egrets, Long-tailed tit and Linnets on the dew pond at High and Over and a Mute Swan family.

All being watched by the white horse on High and Over Down.
