    A great Hobby!

    Totally agree Emma, I found one boggling enough to watch zooming around! Sadly I've just read in the paper that there was a major fire on the Whixall reserve yesterday with 50 acres burned, a real shame. You read my mind there Pam, I nearly asked about them earlier. I'll look forward to the...

    Scotland visit

    Yes I can imagine! I've heard them on a dvd I've got and the narrator describes them as being like a group of ladies gossiping! |=)|

    Strumpshaw Fen and Buckenham RSPB

    Sounds (and looks) a beautiful place Matt. I don't think we went to either of those reserves. The bluebell wood and pic four in particular are gorgeous, looks so peaceful. The Harriers would have been my highlight I think, along with the Avocets. Always enjoy listening to Sedge Warblers too...

    Group Trip To Ynys Hir

    An enjoyable read George, thank you! I spent a few days camping very close to Ynys Hir three years ago. Sadly this was before I was really interested in birds so I didn't notice anything! It does sound like a wonderful reserve. Our local group is going on a trip there soon and I'm considering...

    A great Hobby!

    Well done in getting the pic Emma. They sure are fast aren't they! I saw one yesterday evening but was far too slow with the camera and camcorder. Hi Pam, Love the cygnet pics, I haven't seen any yet this year, nor any Ruddy Ducks. If you are ever in North Shrops in early May, Whixall/Fenns...

    Amazing Luck!

    Absolutely amazing shots Tony, the best I've ever seen of a Bittern. Must have been great to see one so well. I guess you are pleased with that new lens!

    Excellent clear pics Tony, the fourth is my favourite. Shame they tend to be so timid as they are smart birds and interesting to watch but I've found them impossible to get near. The only pics I have were taken from the car when two landed near to it once. Nice to see yours, well done.

    Spring Migrants Anyone?

    I've seen Ring Ouzels, Pied Flycatchers, Redstarts and Yellow Wagtail in the last week and dozens of Wheatear several Swallows, Sand, House Martins and Chiffchaffs too. At a local reserve there are also Sedge, Reed and Willow Warblers, Dunlin, LR Plovers, Green and Common Sand, Terns passing...

    Foxy Lady!

    Ever get the feeling you're being followed :eek!: Word soon gets around who has the food the know! You'll have a resident family soon. :t: Shame about the pics, but you have your memories of the close encounters and that's the main thing. Guess there must be quite a few in your area.

    Two Bundles of Fluff....... and Mum

    Thanks pie, glad you like them! :t: Baz, that sounds brilliant, sticking them on the card and all. I can imagine how good it must have looked, a really great idea. We have dissected them a few times and I have a large matchbox full of various bones. We haven't tried to id them though. I tell...

    A 'Mini BF Meet'!

    Another great read! :t:Good to see the Avocets back, wonder why they never come here?! :-C I never did get to see those young last year and they looked soooo cute too. Well done on all the others, that is quite a list you managed in between the chatting! The Long Tailed Tit nest must be really...

    Two Bundles of Fluff....... and Mum

    The computer has been spared, for now, as it has my photos stored on it, however its days are definitely numbered! Glad you liked the pics Pam. The owls continue to roost in their favourite tree during the day and fly between the branches calling for food in the evenings! Mum is always there...
