Sparrowhawk, which brought about Packham style thigh rubbing!!

Still cold out and the predators are active, the photo below from the Lurgies was a lucky shot when I spotted the Sparrowhawk coming straight towards me along the path.



Sparrowhawk on the Lurgies path, it got quite close before it noticed me clicking away

Some of the Linnet flock at Arbroath Cliffs which was around 400 birds


Say farewell to the seed the Linnets were feeding on, little wonder farmland bird numbers have crashed. The late sun has given this photo a very orange feel.


I haven't seen a Collared Dove in my garden for years but this young one is coming in to feed on the seed the messy sparrows drop. Photo through the double glazing.
