  1. Robby

    Robby

    The frustrating Sunday continued, albeit with some quality bird sightings! We entered a sharp bend when we heard a Robin singing, so I pulled in to a field gateway so we could look around. Eventually I spotted it in the hedgerow (which had been well and truly mangled by the looks of it). It was...

  2. Cock Fighting

    Cock Fighting

    One of our Sunday day's out we decided on Balintore Glen. A little over half way along, we'd stopped to watch a load of Red Kite flying around, when suddenly Ken spotted these two cock Pheasants. The were putting up quite a fight!! Got a great view of one of them and what it looks like under...

  4. Weekend view

    Weekend view

    This is one of the views along the Balintore road I took that day. It's a short but pretty glen in Angus not far from Kinnordy. This is looking south, beyond the distant hills is the city of Dundee and the Tay estuary. Isn't it strange how you don't really see the overhead wires until you...

  5. Pied Wagtail

    Pied Wagtail

    On our travels through the glen we spotted this lovely fellow fence-sitting. I had to shove my camera into my friend's hands to get him to take it... seems to have managed OK!! Although I come across these fairly often, I do struggle to get a good picture of them, either through movement or...

  6. Lapwing

    Lapwing

    In a neighbouring field, with not so many buttercups, was this Lapwing, a female I think, as it's just a short crest. Back from the hospital, more confused than ever but no op unless I want it!! Now going to try and catch up with all your lovely pictures.

  7. In amongst the Buttercups

    In amongst the Buttercups

    This is how to make Starlings look pretty, isn't it!! I'd gone for a drive round a local glen with my friend one lovely summer Sunday and saw these youngsters when we stopped for lunch. Sorry about the pale vertical line - that was a bit of sheep wire that got in the way. My processing skills...
