PosingShort eared owl. A very fortunate encounter with this wonderful bird. I had packed up on a landscape outing and was driving away when I spotted the owl perched. I was able to park up one hundred metres or so away, swop lens and crawl the car back. It never left the spot. I took several photos and left it in peace.
My spotA pair of puffins wanting the same muddy mound. Sadly I didn’t get chance to get both focussed.
Barn owlOn the prowl for a spot of tea. It’s ringed and looks like it has a piece of dried grass caught in the ring.
Short eared OwlCruising around. Stunning birds
CurlewStood on a wall watching over the chick.
KestrelA female kestrel wonders what the clicking noise is. Taken from a paid hide.
SparrowhawkSparrowhawk about to tuck into lunch. A very famous paid hide location in southern Scotland.
Red GrouseMoving through the wonderful heather bloom in mid August.
DunnockThe unassuming Dunnock. This delightful small bird has the most wonderful song.
Little Owl chickA little owl chick sits one legged patiently upon a perch
Female StonechatA pair of stonechats were moving around a low bush, set against a snowy backdrop.
Little owlWhen I first saw this little owl, it was perched on the top of the wall. It hopped into the field after a while and somehow walked through the walk and perched itself in this position. A few shots and left it to its sleepy afternoon.
Doozing Tawny OwlCame across this dozing tawny owl. Quite unexpected but was able to swop lens and get a few photos. It did look over at one point but I wasn’t interesting enough, so it went back to dozing.
KingfisherA wonderful male kingfisher with a minnow, ready to take back to the nest. Taken from a paid hide.
Female KingfisherThe other half of pair. The male must have sat on the nest allowing the female to go out to feed. Taken from a paid hide.
GuillemotOn the way to the Farne Islands, the boat cruises around first, creating chances to photograph birds in the sea.
Home for LunchWondering back to its burrow with a mouthful of sandeels. Quite unusual in that its not being mobbed by the blackheaded gulls.
WaitingPerched on top of the cliffs, I believe the puffin is waiting for a easy fly in, to its burrow, as it will be mobbed by black headed gulls, which will be wanting to steal the sand eels.
WhitethroatWhitethroat picking up an mealy worm for lunch. Paid hide.
Perched Little OwlLittle owl, perched up, looking for the put out food. Hide shot
NuthatchA lovely nuthatch poses on the branch.
Marsh TitA marsh tit pauses briefly, whilst it eyes up a small fly as a prospective snack.
Barn Owl flightA lovely barn owl, quartering over a field in the late winter afternoon sunshine.
SiskinA lovely male siskin waits patiently for room at the feeder.
GoldfinchWinter is a great time to see goldfinches, as the flock together in the search of food and warm roosts.
FamilyA female mallard duck watches over a brood of chicks by the side of the canal.
ChaffinchA lovely woodland bird in great condition.
SpringingA lovely nuthatch watching whats happening around it before grabbing a peanut and flying back to the nest.
