    We always have a good time Hazel, even on a dull day like today sadly a lot of mine are to dark with lots of noise in them because I took the wrong camera up with me :( but I do have some to show when they are ready.

    Thank you Paul A, just a couple more for now will get more ready later.

    Lapwing

    Little Egret.

    A few of them.

    And what we think is the mate to the first Robin.

    Nice Robin pics. The weather must be affecting them if they are still paired up.

    That's a nice catch in flight Jim, as we know, it wasn't easy to catch up with it  lol       Bet one of you is saying "Hawker" and the other is saying "Emperor"  lol    I'm not sure at all but I'll have a guess at Migrant Hawker !    Come on Nige ..... you know your dragons so put us on the right path  lol
