All five Cygnets still doing well, and just before this photo taken, they were all asleep including their mother, on the river bank. Then suddenly a hoot from down the river and all their heads came up and excitement was in the air .... it was the father returning from somewhere. These two were mimmicking each other in an up and down motion almost trying to out do one another.

Watched the female Blackbird collecting bits and bobs out the kitchen window. Round and around, using at least five different landing spots before entering the nest in the hedge. So happy to have seen this before the new growth completely hides it. She's not decided which way is more comfortable. (I know the feeling) Swipe >for pic 2. Record shots

-

No birds or nests were hurt or disturbed while taking this shot - not so for the overdone sausages in the oven. 😊

Hawk & Dove ! PREDATOR by Adrian Brown

Two birds engaged in a chase, perhaps the lower one (woodpigeon) avoided the predator by creating a stunning diversion !

ornate blue tit nest by danny boy26

See all the moss hanging down was a good give away plus also the last 3 weeks the noise from the chicks before they left was so loud we assumed it was taken by blue tits as i know they hatch out large amount of young, We found this cast iron cow head in the barn only put up a couple of months ago.
