amazing to see 3 at once, what time did you see them, did they stay very long?
Lovely photos. Were 2 in breeding colours? Nice one Roy.

Hi RodDeb, yes it was about 2.30pm I saw them, they turned up while I was walking around, still there when I left. Yes two of them appeared to be in some form of breeding plumage. Cheers, Roy.
