Starting with a first for me ... Sparrowhawk in neighbour's garden here in quarry, only ever seen a seemingly lost youngster many years ago!
Grabbed ID vid footage through d/glazed door, then battery died & by time I'd replaced it to go outside for better res a delivery driver stopped next door & frightened the bird off!! grrrrrr
Hope it's a one-off for the sake of my Spadger horde!

Lot to learn
Thanks PB and thanks times four to Gaynor LOL Yes, I do look after him, lots of home cooked meals, trying to keep him away from the virus as I do the shopping...… but currently giving him a bit of earache as he's lost some paperwork which we can't find anywhere - at the moment !!

Lynn L said:It is my sisters 33rd anniversary today as well.
what a coincidence, hope they have had a lovely celebration, albeit not the freedom this year. It is also our forum friend Ann (Gardenbirder's birthday today) so another reason to have glass of wine ………………… that is if I had remembered to buy a bottle when I picked up essentials today :(
James G said:Thank you Ann, just trying the Nikon P1000 out on video and it does this better then the pictures. It looks like I might still be here Hazel, so will keep an eye on them and I still have some mealworms that have been down south twice but it looks like they will be not going again :) Thank you Mike.
You're welcome Jim
Bridge cameras, particularly those from the key manufacturers are generally very good these days. Even in their early days, they were pretty damned good. Many years ago, I had a Kodak Z650, which apart from some manual override limitations, was all in all, a good budget Bridge Camera.

Cracking photos PB, good to have you back, and your pics, of course....
Hazel & Mike, Happy Belated Ruby Anniversary to you both.
I can't find the original mention, so I've tagged on to Gaynors.
