You're on hols again T.J? This is the man that has Red Kites as a garden bird!! Still Hoopoe, Shrike & Bustard is a good start. Not to mention a foreign Cyril (looks like a Meerkat).

Gorgeous photos, TeeJay. I always think of my late mother whenever I see a picture of a hoopoe - she thought they were lovely birds but would always refer to them as a whoopee, which always made me laugh!
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
