While I was sitting, eating my lunch, I noticed a pair of blue tits industriously going in and out of a gap in the planking on the side of the building. There clearly had to be a nest in there, but the gap was way above my head. So, when the parents weren't around, I reached up, randomly aimed the camera and hit the shutter button. This is the result.

For the first time ever, a pair of robins built a nest in the maple tree. Crows were constantly trying to get into the maple tree, but the robins were vigilant and attacking the crows.
Nesting on Broadwater Lake, Godalming, and keeping an eye on me. Hopefully the three eggs will hatch.
I know this looks like just another rabbit photo. When I left for work this morning I saw a very large hole that was dug into the front lawn. I had a suspicion a momma rabbit was hard at work. When I came home tonight I saw her butt sticking out of the hole and the rest of her digging away in the front lawn. While she was hard at work, a few of the local "tree rats" were lurking around checking out her activities. I hope the tree rats are not meat eaters.
Shags nesting on the cliffs at Butt of Lewis, Isle of Lewis, Scotland. Easy to think of these birds as being a plain black, but there is a lot of texture and detail in their glossy, green-black feathers.
This one's in my backyard. It's already the third nest this year she's raising. Now there are 2 newborn moorhen.......

Shot from trail south of MdO. From their positions, one would assume that they flew in forward. makes sense, but take off looks like it might be a bit of a flutter.

The coot (Fulica atra) is preparing its nest. Currently there are no eggs, but I guess there will be in a week.
An update on our nesting Goldfinch (the first photo and story is here): as of today the chicks have not hatched, but she is still there guarding the nest. Here she is, about 8 feet away from me as I picked up the newspaper off the porch - you can see how close she is to the railing here.
