I was sent this BBC News link today which shows a rare UK sighting of a Bearded Vulture in the Peak District

Kind regards, Ann
@ Tony, good thing the French courts rescinded the decision regarding the Turtle Dove killings. Takes time to change with regard to the game/shooting lobby, but slowly slowly if we keep putting on the pressure.
Lol Ann, I think the maggie was trying to get a tail feather for a 2nd DNA analysis !! It looked so miniscule against "big bird" but a brave magpie nonetheless !

Thanks all Here is Autumn watch as Gaynors mentioned.

Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Clare Bailey said:That came up on Suffolk BINS, Hazy - complete with a photo. How I wish we could travel.
Thought I was seeing things at first Clare so maybe with all the snow and chill from the East the Vulture thinks it's back in the Alps lol Can't wait for the day we can get back to our birding adventures, meanwhile, keep well and safe all.
