I can't see the original sticky so will start a new thread.  Saw nearly 30,000 knot on Breydon Water yesterday.  Great weekend at Minsmere, Otter, Kingfishers, Bitterns, lots of Marsh Harriers

Waiting for Barn owl to appear when a man stopped to talk and the owl popped up right behind him....Grrrrr

Substitute was this swan.

Seems a bit like Marcus Rashford.

Substitute sometimes better than the starter. Nice shot.

I managed to take our old terrier along the field hedgerows late this afternoon, she 's still interested in the rabbit burrows, I was interested in spotting last years bird nests, just visible before the leaves start to appear. There are a few hawthorn leaves out already. I spotted a buzzard wheeling and calling overhead. A nice walk after all the recent bad weather. smile

I love the distinctive call that the buzzards make.smile

We are lucky enough to have a pair that often hunt in our local fields. Only yesterday they circled high over our house on their way to another hunting ground, It was only their call that gave them away.smile

Male Cuckoo seen and heard today here in the Lot, sounds like he has a sore throat at present. Also saw Crag Martins seen on the way to friends last week, not seen any swallows yet an article in local paper says that a lot of species are declining over here including swallows not good news same for many species of insects.

How is your progress with Gimp OP. Did you used to use Photoshop Elements in the past?

Made a trip over to Chew Valley lake today as an Osprey had been sighted. All I saw was a lot of rain and a very lonely and cold icecream salesman and some bonkers fly fishermen in a boat.

Been out to Stowe Gardens today (NT) quite a few Red Kites around today , most I've seen for a while. Just why the Crow's chase them I'll never know undecided the Kites are so much bigger. 

There was also a Buzzard on the verge on the road home, feeding off the road kill.
