    Great snaps, CATLADY - and I yearn for your tablet skills  

    Well the screen-capture part didn't work that well for me, that laptop has always had a dodgy screen  

    EDIT - Plus, I need to figure out why there's no sound on some of it and there's blasting wind on the rest

    Cross post, Scylla, sorry - I didn't see your peregrine video when I posted mine. S/he was persistent - flew off and returned a few minutes lates, didn't see what caused that.

    Oh, and now I've just seen your later post!  (I've reported your video as spam/abuse, Geemeff!)

  • Many thanks for all the posts today

    RICHARD - Well done spotting the peregrine also thanks CATLADY for the captures - brilliant.  I too envy your tablet skills :-)  And thanks BART for the link - lovely seeing them.

    GEEMEFF - so pleased you managed to capture the cormorant as I have been looking out for him.   I still think of him as Leonardo as seeing him dry of his wings just reminds me so much of the scene in Titanic

    Thankyou Karen

    I will lookout for my Rutland photos - will need to have a good old dig around the photo albums. Spent many an hour there over the years. Will see what I can do.

    Thanks Peewit, look forward to seeing some

    It's OK, I wrote and told "them" (even tho I'm sure they don't exist) that it was all a big mistake - and I'm gifting you (we can't "give" anyone anything these days) a little vid showing that the Cormorant hasn't yet left the nest!  Following this episode s/he was up 'n down several times and then went and tucked standing in the rain at the far right corner:
