It was raining while taking this shot. Seems like we spent most of our vacation shooting in rain, snow or hail but I loved every minute.
This is a rather poor image technically, and the pylon spoiled everything. So I'm posting temporarily, until I manage to get a better shot. But I like the action and it shows the hardships that eagles have to endure once they catch the fish. I can confirm that the eagle at the top, who caught the fish, was able to fend off his challengers and got to enjoy his lunch.

Don’t look for someone who will solve all your problems. Look for someone who won’t let you face them alone.
The robin is one of the most familiar birds of the UK, regularly visiting gardens. Robins are also common in parks, scrub and woodland, making their presence known with a loud, territorial song. They sing from prominent perches right through the winter, when both males and females hold territories; indeed, they are fiercely territorial, driving off intruders and even fighting. During the breeding season, the female is allowed into the male's territory where she sets up a nest of dead leaves, moss and hair. Nests often crop up in the oddest of places, such as plant pots, old wellies and shelves, but Ivy and other shrubs are their natural choice. Robins have been associated with Christmas ever since Victorian times; Victorian postmen, who were known as 'Robin Red-breasts' because of their red waistcoats, are thought to be the inspiration for so many robins appearing on our Christmas cards. Whether it's the case or not, robins certainly make themselves known in winter with their loud, aggressive song!
These two males kept this fight going for better part of two minutes .
The noise of the wings slapping actual bought our female Sparrow Hawk to the scene in hope of a possible ''distracted meal'' :-(
Thank you for taking the time to view.
My best regards .. Martin

Territorial fights become more and more a scene in the local basin. Pictured here two Trumpeter Swans did just that when suddenly one decided the other one got too close. Luckily there was no sore loser at this time, and it ended very quickly as well.
Its in the worst battle that you learn the most.
Go get it, fight for it, you deserve the light to come back.
My first attempt at the Milky Way.
Was taken far too soon after sunset, I was fighting against the rising of a full moon - contrary to all tutorials.
Im afraid it will be a few photos of the Kestrels. We have not been anywhere for a long time, other than visiting a local Kestrel nest

A great morning wandering alone on the flank of Stac Pollaidh. A few freeze and thaws had finally made the snow a pleasure to walk on. Two days before I'd had an epic battle walking up the valley to view the Fiddler , spending most of my time falling into deep drifts, and fighting my way out. Finally a day to Dilly Dally, by Toots and the Maytals

On the day that I visited the Eskrigg Nature Reserve several of the birds in the lake got a little aggressive with each other. Maybe it's something in the water.
M316 passes the abandoned hulk of WS Tower, long out of service but still guarding the passage of CSX trains on the old B&O West End. Just ahead lies Kingwood Tunnel and the summit of Newburg Grade. With the long shadows and being on the "dark" side of the train to get the tower in frame, this is a tricky one to get just right. Thanks to burst mode this version with about 95% of the nose lit up meets the "good enough" threshold, as far as I'm concerned. One could wait till the summer months for the sunlight to be more head on here, but they would find that the abandoned tower looks more like a chia pet with all of the vines growing on and around it.

ghostbones' complex texture was the perfect backdrop for this fragile cactus bloom.
