Kingfisher in the thunder

After school we walked down to the Kingfisher nest again. From our house it is nearly two miles, the temperature was 11 degrees, so it was quite a pleasant walk.

The moment we sat down opposite the Kingfishers nest it became extremly windy,  the rain started to lash down and huge black cloud roll in both sides of us. We could hear the thunder all around.  

This is me getting a bit fed up. We couldn't decide whether to sit and wait for the thunder and rain to pass over or whether to start walking back in the rain.

In the end we sat and waited for the rain to stop.

I was very wet walking back up the hill even though the sun came out.

Back at home I managed to capture this Swallow taking off.
