From my understanding this species no longer breeds in the UK. I know I have only seen a handful of sightings on the coast, Spurn, Gibraltar Point etc. So, I am very fortunate to have this species has a common breeder in my area, here. I would say it is still thriving so to speak here in SK. I have even seen it from my balcony.
These shots were from (obviously a nesting pair) in the vineyards. The vineyards cover the lower slopes of the whole Carpathian Mountains (I would reckon more on big hills than mountains). Often areas are left unattended, its these areas where the birds thrive. This includes a whole range of different species.
Within one area of vineyards I would reckon the size of half a football pitch, I found signs of at least three nests.
So coming to the photographs, I positioned my hide the evening before on dusk. Placed a few desired perches and left the site. Returning the following morning. I was able to shoot these birds with the minimal disturbance. I know I commented something similar on a previous upload. But this isn't something I have done before, when birdwatching. Its such a wonderful experience to be able to witness the behavior of this magnificent species up close.
I tried my best this time, but still managed to upload eight images. I just can't bring myself to post just one image, hope you don't mind :)

Sadida was resting waiting for her Erik to come home and I caught her under the covers (she likes to burrow) with the remote right next to her. Does she understand was life is all about or what.

Random Fact: I needed to see something cute when I walked in the door and when I turned the corner she was standing there waiting. When she saw me she came running to see me. I love her!
