No need to ruin a very good thread Max.
Thanks in advance.


My apologies as you were. Be nice to see a few photos of some birds of prey though.

I did until a raccoon came by, laid waste to my bird feeder, and kept the birds away. Little basturd.

I had quite a crowd of diners, too -- every feeding post taken, with a small flock either cleaning up or butting in.

I don't care. I'm old. I don't have to.

There you go.

I took the Osprey pic in December and the Kestrel about 10 days ago. Unfortunately, neither in my garden, both were in Portugal so apologies for not sticking to the purpose of the thread.

I dont know if any bird lovers are aware of this but over the last few weeks there's been a pair of Bee-eaters rearing chicks in Cumbria.

Oh and we saw a Stonechat down Aberavon Beach earlier. 👌🏻


If anyone doesn't know what they look like, I took this pic of a young Bee Eater about 10 days ago in Portugal. There were dozens of them, absolutely stunning.

I've seen the majority of birds others have mentioned in our garden since we've lived here but some we've had that haven't been mentioned are;

Tawny Owl
Little Owl
Barn Owl
Little Egret
Common Buzzard

Quite a few have mentioned Greater Spotted Woodpecker and we've had plenty of those plus many Green Woodpeckers.

A few I took yesterday on the Pembrokeshire coastal path.

Anyone have a stab at their identity?

Thank you Dar, loads of birds about, I saw one yesterday and at first I thought it was a male bullfinch but when I looked at it through the glasses it had a blue head, annoyingly it took off just before I could photograph it. Ain't seen anything like it previously.

Interesting the first thing that sprung to mind was a Dartford Warbler.

After some research, its a bullfinch. His/Her son or daughter was with him/her too. Great to see.
