Whilst driving through a country lane, i pulled into a junction and saw this mirror with the sign Neighbourhood Watch. I thought it a bit different as there were no houses around and i couldn't spot any burglars or deisel thieves! Its a mystery
Can you imagine how mind numbing, covert surveillance could be?
Hour after hour of nothing happening - wondering if the "target" has slipped out unseen.
Still I suppose it must be better than "sitting on the wire" listening for phone calls that may never happen or that you don't understand when they do.
Life in the "intelligence" services is not all 007 .
The watcher series of shots can be seen in my album "The watcher".
I spent about 15 minutes trying to get a shot of this work on Hanbury Street but this guy just wouldn't get out of the way. He was even obstructing traffic. In the end I gave up and kept him in shot. If you recognise him, tell him to show a little consideration for other photographers next time!
After perching and listening for his next meal, with silent speed this Great Gray Owl would hit his target (in this case a vole) and probably crush it to death before flying to a nearby perch to polish it off. That generally was in a matter of seconds...usually I just caught the tail end! For a good look at 'whose watching who' click to view large!
Thanks you for your visit and comments...have a beautiful weekend!

We arrived in Watch Hill just as people were starting to wander about. The overnight fog was just beginning to burn off. This image, while captured in color, looked almost B&W. Because of the large buildings and houses in the background, I put on a sepia touch to make this image like what the town made me feel...like a town gone by in the 30's. All the women were wearing the same pastel colors, the teenagers had kakhi shots and polo shirts. AND...this was the Watch Hill Yacht Club basin where little kids were learning to handle a sailboat.
The old city wall of Tallinn, dating back to Medieval times, ran right by our hotel, and stepping out this was the sight we first saw.

This is an ornithologist friend of mine, we used to meet up at sunrise he to watch birds and me to take photos of the sunrise!
Swimming slowly across the river, eyes locked on us as he approached, this big guy was getting ready to tell us we weren't welcome. This shot was taken just before the previous ones, shown below in comments, as he began to contemplate his charge.

People watching the steam train full of tourists (myself included) to Tiradentes pass by in Sao Joao del Rei, MG, Brazil.
A few Fallow Deer watching pensively during a cull this morning at Dunham Park. I know it has to be done but the element of fear amongst the herd always tugs at my heart strings.
Marked tourist trail in the Nera Gorge-Beușnița National Park, which has an area of 36,758 ha (90,830 acres) of mountain peaks, cirques, crevasses, caves, valleys, canyons, and waterfalls that shelters a large variety of flora and fauna, most endemic.
