Not something you see every day: water rail attacking a kingfisher! KF escaped (barely). Just for good measure, a bittern turned up late to the party! BBO Wildlife Trust Calvert Jubilee today bucks bird club #phonescope opticron (@[email protected]) #waterrail #kingfisher #bittern

Had an enjoyable few hours with the Stanford Ringing Group this morning hoping for Tawny Owl chicks and I wasn't disappointed🙂

Some pics from a recent trip to Mid-Wales filming the local nature, stayed in an 18th century cottage and got my best ever Dipper footage, including chicks in the nest under a bridge it was absolute magic and a real treat.

This is disgraceful and surely illegal.

I've always enjoyed producing art since I was a kid at school and have worked in oils. watercolour, acrylics etc but I'm currently really enjoying producing digital art with Autodesk Sketchbook, really gets my creative juices going 😀

Couldn’t let this weekend go by without a reminder. #HenHarrierDay Ruth Tingay Chris Packham Mark Avery

Let’s hope justice is done and a suitable punishment handed out if found guilty. raptorpersecutionuk.org/2023/09/08/pol…

Well done. Lovely

I don’t like all the negativity on here but one thing I will forever highlight is the barbaric sport of hare coursing. This is an awful story and I hope the police rural task force have been alerted. They are on this topic but the law doesn’t help them stop the evil criminals.

Congratulations Roy🦅🦅

Maya has just touched down on the Manton Bay nest! Welcome back! This is the second time she's returned on the 12th which makes this her joint earliest date back.

Less than 24 hours after we saw Maya return to the nest, we see 33(11) touch down as well. Fantastic to see our pair back together again! youtu.be/Qh4gvn01K8Y

Blue Tits In My Nest Box: 11th May 2024 youtu.be/Amoa7ZXlm-0?si… via YouTube

At last I have Blue Tits nesting in my garden, nothing has ever used this camera box until now, unfortunately the camera gave up the ghost ages ago.

I shot this footage of a sub adult Golden Eagle being mobbed by a buzzard on the Strathconon Estate, the climax to a brilliant week spent in the Scottish Highlands

This shows the industrial scale of the killing of our native wildlife just so a few can effing shoot grouse!
