Having missed out for the last 2 years due to Covid we decided this year to push the boat out to celebrate my 70th birthday by venturing to Turkey and staying at the Hilton Dalaman in Sarigerme with good friends Neil and Gail.
The hotel was fabulous and even exceeded expectations, the weather was also perfect with daytime temperatures around the 26-27 deg mark with evenings around 20-21deg.
Unfortunately the birding did not match the hotel and weather and was quite poor and disappointing with most summer migrants having already departed.
Anyway here's a few images of some of the birds and other wildlife that I did see and managed to capture with the camera, all taken with my newish Canon RF 100-500mm f4.5-7.1 IS USM zoom which turned out to be a terrific travelling lens due to it's compactness, huge thanks go to good friend and fellow 'togger' Dave Gilbert for the loan of his Canon RF 1.4x extender...........
