Oy, don't come any closer

Hello rhodopsin.

A warm welcome to the forums.  Those are fantastic pictures.  Love the attitude of the bird in the first pic, and the workmanship of the birds in the second pic, is simply brilliant. LOL.  Thanks for posting such great images.

Hello rhodopsin, and welcome to the RSPB Forums.  enjoy yourself here

Wow that gull is saying quite a lot to show his disapproval

Fabulous clear pictures there.  Was it a special wildllife cruise that you where on?

Thank you for sharing.

Regards

Kathy and Dave

Hi All

Thanks for the welcome and kind remarks. I didn't realise there was a width restriction for the images. I'm sure if you use your mouse & "save picture as" you'll be able to view the full image.

Fabulous shots. He certainly has attitude!

Welcome to the forum.

Great shots - just look at that beak!  You wouldn't want to be upsetting that!

I think there's a width restriction on photos because if they're too large (or for example, big links) it throws out the layout of the forum pages for that thread.

Thanks for your kind comments.

I'll have to reduce the width of future images I post. Appologies to the forum admin chaps.

Hello rhodopsin, brilliant photograph. I wouldn't argue with it.

Blimey! That's a mouth and a half!! Well captured!! Welcome from me too!

Cheers all.

Just recently joined the RSPB to get more info on the birds I'm coming across and where to spot more.

I used to do a lot of walking (with dog) but my eyes were firmly looking at the paths. Now my walks are somewhat relaxed (no dog) and I'm starting to look at thing more closely.

Call it a "mid-life crisis" perhaps but I can't understand why I didn't spot them before.

BTW I've corrected the file sizes so that you can see the whole image.
