Had an amazing day at Ian Howells Wildlife Photography hide, his set up is first class and the birds visiting are spectacular, the highlight of course was this Goshawk, seen here interacting with a squirrel! The squirrel was looking for a fight but clearly no match and backed off! More photos of the coming days and take a look at my small video on Youtube youtu.be/_vpLNWLF09o
A female Redstart in woodland beneath the Betws mountain, Amman valley.
I saw the first Redstart (male) on April 21st so it was lovely to visit my favourite Redstart spot yesterday and see one male plus at least two, possibly three females.
The male seemed disinterested in the females but the females were chasing each other about relentlessly! Is there a reason for this anyone?
CONFUSED?
Mr. and Mrs. Robin are nest building already!

Middle of winter...unbelievable.

I think this one was giving me a telling off for not bringing enough Mealworms at Morton lochs yesterday.
I took this photo of a Dotterel last September, they migrate from North Africa to their breeding grounds in the Scottish Highlands. One of their stop off points for 'refuelling' is the Black mountain in the Breacon Beacons. Springwatch presenter Iolo Williams actually recorded one of his TV shows about Dotterel on the very same mountain. Sadly I have not been able to see any Dotterel migrating this year during the Spring or on their return this Autumn. I hope it's not a sign of things to come and hope next year will be better.
When the photographed tries to become the photographer...
Black Paws was an orphaned fox I helped feed and she has now moved to her own territory.
As the light faded on the Scottish cliffs the last of the sun moved behind the beautiful beak and lit it up like a lantern..
Turned out nice again. :@)

Razorbill in flight over the North Sea at Bempton Cliffs.
We spent a lovely day at Bempton Cliffs yesterday. The weather was kind to us - after the morning, which was initially a little grey, the sun came out just before noon and the winds were fairly light.
These Razorbills are a bit tricky to capture in flight, as they are very fast!
Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment or fav my images.
