    Just spotted this thread - I think I am the Ian referred to. Here are a couple of images I captured of the barn owl. It was around for a while and tried to steal a kill from a buzzard on the ground but got a bit duffed up !

    Spider near Amy's Marsh At the UW work party on Tuesday we found several large spiders up near Amy's Marsh that no-one seemed to recognise. I took some pics - attached. I think it is the 4-spot orb weaver and it is depressingly common. No doubt someone will correct me if I am wrong

    Peregrin perhaps ?? High over the Moors at about 4pm on Wednesday. Is there enough in the pics for an ID. Shots were hand held with the equivalent of a 900mm lens and are heavily cropped - it really was high up - spooked all the "white" birds and caused a mass take off

    4 pics from the Flashes yesterday. Grey wagtail, goldfinch and 3 dexters - I hadn't realised the Flashes were so shallow.

    whats this ? Anyone tell me what this is - very like a chaffinch but with a white face - and very gnarly legs ! Not great pics - it was quite a distance away and poor light (raining)
  23. R

    what's this ?

    Here is another shot - a few seconds earlier. Does this help at all ??
