Good morning, all, and welcome to the new year's thread! Let's see what this year will bring for Swift and Beau.
I'm happy to say that Swift is gracing the box with her presence:
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
A beautiful wing stretch:
Awwww. Someone stayed the night:
EDIT: Having read Cilla's latest update I now know this to be Beau! He arrived at about 1am (their time), soaking wet.
A quick stretch and chin kick:
It's getting lighter:
Thinking about going:
She He has flown.
Awwww--Love the bowing session pics, Clare--thanks! Do you know if any other raptors do that?
Kind regards, Ann
I don't know, Ann. The only other bird I've seen doing anything like it is the wood pigeon - that's part of why I find it so entertaining!
I'm so pleased you're enjoying the captures - I imagine you'd like another one. Swift is in the box:
Just popped in for a snap-stealing session ;-) Thank you, Climpies :-*
IMAGICAT
You're welcome, Scylla the Magnificent.
She's up:
She is moving her left wing rather awkwardly. I hope she's OK.
