  1. That's what I wanted!

    That's what I wanted!

    Seems Great Tit found just the titbit he was after! He's looking grand for the end of the season, think he must have completed his post breeding moult.
  2. Hoping

    Hoping

    Robins are always a joy to see I think. Trouble is they always seem to arrive when I'm busy trying to have my lunch, so getting the camera up isn't as straightforward as it could be. So sometimes I miss the shot and they don't always come back before I have to leave. Got it right this day! He...
  3. Just!!

    Just!!

    I only just managed to get all this Pheasant in the picture really!! Ferdy wouldn't have been too pleased if I'd not got him photographed, would he!!
  4. Cresty

    Cresty

    Just beyond the swan was a Great Crested Grebe, now losing his summer finery sadly.
  5. All in White

    All in White

    Out to the loch and a Mute Swan was showing himself off within yards of the Crannog Hide.
  6. Looks complex like a puzzle feeder

    Looks complex like a puzzle feeder

    Off we went to Loch of the Lowes last autumn. A Blue Tit was on a feeder outside the reception. The feeding station was rather busy that day.
  7. Resting place

    Resting place

    Leaving my Patch, we found some Swallows hanging about on the overhead wires. Usually they'd be recent fledglings, but these two both look like adults.
  8. In the grass

    In the grass

    There was lots going on up on the patch that September day for a few Linnet flew in and started seed hunting in the grass. I think this one is an immature, rather than female, as he had quite a few more streaks down his front that I think the girls do. Not having a good time just now... hardly...
  9. The ups and downs of woodland photography!

    The ups and downs of woodland photography!

    Purely a record shot this one. The first I'd seen for months (well it felt like it) and I was so excited that I'd managed to spot it in the tree, with leaves and twigs in the way.... and on the other side of the road! I'm actually rather surprised to have actually managed to get an image at all...
  10. Robbie portrait

    Robbie portrait

    I couldn't resist cropping this to provide a portrait of the Robin who visits the Mause feeding station. I do think he's lovely.
  11. In a Whirl

    In a Whirl

    This is what happens when you try to photograph a Blue Tit that has come for a seed. He's off as soon as you get focused!! I've never had it result in quite such a shot before. Recognisably still a Blue Tit though LOL Saturday Fun Sorry I was missing so much yesterday. Spent the whole...
  12. Nut Inspector

    Nut Inspector

    It looks as if the Nuthatch is inspecting the nuts to see if it's worthwhile going to eat them!!
  13. In the Frame

    In the Frame

    I spotted a movement behind the seed feeder tree and when I locked on it proved to be a Chaffinch. Wish I could get more birds there in that natural frame LOL
  14. That's Tasty!

    That's Tasty!

    I don't know what the Blue Tit was saying, but I like to think it was along those lines LOL He seems to be standing guard over his peanut butter anyway.
  15. Rusty wire

    Rusty wire

    Sorry about the wire, but I did like this pose the Meadow Pipit gave me.
  16. Baby

    Baby

    We visited one of our favourite glens again in September, and shortly after entering, came across some House Martins on a power line. Obviously only just out of the nest. He seems to be waiting for mum to come and feed him.
  17. Loose feathers

    Loose feathers

    I think this Blackbird has been busy raising youngsters, and now needs to get down to the serious job of moulting. Some of his feathers look a bit worse for wear, don't you think! Saturday Fun
  18. Back to normal

    Back to normal

    The Nuthatch seemed to agree that it should be on the nuts after all LOL. Sorry if I post too many of these, but they're still a novelty for us here. The first one I saw in the area was during Covid, so a long wait!
  19. But who ARE you?

    But who ARE you?

    An immature Robin meets adult Great Tit and looks confused! In case you're wondering, a couple of seconds on and the Great Tit took fr(l)ight!!
  20. Ferdie the Fence Climber

    Ferdie the Fence Climber

    The friendly Pheasant really seems to like eating above ground when he can get away with it LOL. The light that day really seemed to show off his colours I thought.
  21. Thought they liked nuts!!!

    Thought they liked nuts!!!

    Nuthatches were very regular visitors to the lower feeding station throughout last summer. So nice to see. Not managed to attract them to the main one I look after, just one visit last year.
  22. How long is he going to be

    How long is he going to be

    Think this is a female Great Tit, as the stripe is rather narrow. I thought she looked a bit concerned.
  23. Nearly there

    Nearly there

    Another young Robin was around the feeding station. Sweet with that spotty look... rather like acne, don't you think LOL He's not far off completing his moult to his first adult plumage stage. Sorry I was not around much yesterday, had a nasty fall in the kitchen which rather shook me up for...
  24. Colour match

    Colour match

    I've just realised that a Red Squirrel matches the colour of peanut butter!! No wonder they love it so much. I was up there again today, and that squirrel's tail (unless it was due to the sun) was white, not black like this one.
  25. Not ever-so special

    Not ever-so special

    .... but I rather like this image of the female Chaffinch with the uncluttered background (despite all the trees around!
