Birds of Prey....Your Pictures Wanted!

You're both corect of course, I was thrilled to see the Kestrel as well, particularly as all my spotting is done in the wild. I just meant that my offering was not as good as other's Red Kites and Sparrowhawks etc.

It's better than my Buzzard BD! Lol

Then it was offski

Don't sell yourself short BD!! Your photos are just as good!! And everyone has photos that don't always turn out the way they would have liked..... But they still share with the rest of us, and I for one am really glad everyone does because I really love seeing the wildlife others have the chance to see and get pictures to look back at..... Sorry everyone..got a bit carried away there.,..

Jocks new favourite spot

Uh oh, they better watch out, now that Jock is about!!

Dinner on a plate?

All he needs now is a plate, knife, and fork!  

I ain't seen him catch anything for a good while now Mike so hopefully he's catching elsewhere and just stopping by to say hi and to check his canvases are still hanging in the sprawk hide...well he wouldn't want anyone to take his place now would he? Lol

Friday 27th January

I just got into the hide, and as I opened the flap, what I thought was a buzzard flying in to the fence post,....

The camera wasn't ready, it was a case of grab, point, shoot and hope for the best, no settings checked until afterwards, with about six black images....

Uncropped, with the following settings

• Lens       400mm
• Exp         1/3 sec
• Aperture  f5

Yes, it was the barn owl.

And with the photo cropped as much as I dare....

Love little Barn Owls! Held one year's ago... so cute Thanks for sharing this

Great Mike, you got one at last, well done.
