This female harrier was flying low over the marsh hunting for her next meal.

One of a pair of kestrels I saw hunting in the masts field at Prestbury Hill nature reserve and at Cleeve Common in Gloucestershire back last summer. This pair successfully reared four chicks and one of the highlights was seeing them all once they had fledged, when I met up with fellow flickr member Rod Holbrook aka the "Bristolboy1" at this reserve in late summer.

A Reddish Egret in early dawn light

From birdnote:

The Reddish Egret, a particularly glamorous heron, is best known for its startling antics in capturing fish. When fishing, the egret sprints across the lagoon, weaving left and right, simultaneously flicking its broad wings in and out, while stabbing into the water with its bill. Fish startled at the egret’s crazed movements become targets of that pink dagger. At times, the bird will raise its wings forward over its head, creating a shadow on the water. It then freezes in this position for minutes. Fish swim in, attracted by a patch of shade and . . . well, you know the rest.

a fox hunting

The fox was far from me, more than 100m and I was behind a fence.

He was in search of food, maybe rabbits as there is a lot of them here

This is a full cropped view in 4K so you can zoom in for more details.

Run!! Run!!! Run!!! Run for your life !!!

在照這隻游隼的時候, 其實並沒有看到這隻小鳥!! 牠們飛的又高又遠, 阿嬤的老花近視眼能在眾人之間 , 第一個看到天空飛翔的這隻鷹已屬不易, 要看到這隻小鳥那就可比 " 百步穿楊" 都要難了吧??

在後製時看到這 "驚險" 的景象, 好替這小鳥擔心喲!!! 但接連看了兩張之後, 有稍微放心些, 因為另一張是小鳥轉彎飛到鷹的另一個方向, 可見這小傢伙頭腦靈活, 比直飛" 快 " 的話是 " 鐵輸" 這大傢伙的!! 牠能利用自身靈活的轉彎來逃避猛禽的追擊, 應該是足以逃命的吧??101015

Shore treasure hunting conjures up glamour, excitement and riches ripe for the discovery. The reality, however, is often different: The small industry of real-life hunters live a dream that comes with its own share of heartache and disappointment

Barn Owl hunting at sunrise saving energy using perch and pounce.

Ramen is delicious, I don't think this is it's natural habitat however. The search continues...

Early morning hunting for this Barn Owl, taken at a Northumberland nature reserve.

A very patient American Kestrel hunting for voles along a grassy field. She was an absolute amazing hunter.

This coyote has given me some great photo opportunities lately. He has been seen in a cemetery that also has fields, woods, and a swamp area surrounding it.

I grew up in the Midwest where Robins are everywhere. Photography gives us a new perspective as we see the muddy wet Robin coming up out of the grass with a wiggling worm. Isn’t nature something? Yum!

Barn Owl .

Worth standing around & getting frozen !

This morning I woke up to a real treat. Three great egrets stopped in to rest and get a bite to eat from the pond.

These guys were working the tall weeds around a prairie dog village today at North Boulder Open Space. Heavily cropped and hand held resting on the car hood!
