Another cracking picture this one Donald. What a lovely time you had with him, didn't you.

I wonder why he's not up on his breeding grounds just now?

But lucky you that he isn't LOL

Had a fright with the Ospreys this morning, no adult on the nest when I looked. Quite a few minutes before she came back. Still it's a warm day here, so no risk of getting cold.
 
Another outstanding capture, Donald. You must have been so thrilled.
