Was in distant view before this close up MC.

OH wow, Mike - thank you. A wonderful capture.

Tarted up versions (the colour and brightness change was one-click Auto by Irfanview, CIRRUS - it nearly always works on the Dyfi perch, for some reason):

It fled on the arrival of the Magpie, but the in/out was so fast they didn't appear on-cam together - and the Magpie was so near the left edge of the cam that I couldn't do much, frame-wise:

That would only be of interest for video, MIKE, which we are not permitted to publish  

This cam is not yet at optimal performance, I'm sure that the picture would have been sharper last season.

The female Merlin again this morning - I lost track of the duration thru chopping out when the cam panned away, but it was there 20 minutes at least, I'd say.

What a handsome little bird, the Merlin! Thanks, all, for the lovely pics.

The cam went down @ 01:00.

Thank you so much for the heads up Colin. Very much appreciated and looking forward to even better quality streaming !

Thank you Colin.
