Early moult
Well when you see some waders still with their summer plumage, it seems early for this guy Common Ringed Plover to have his winter coat on!! These are my favourite charadrius waders.- delia todd

It must be catching
Because here's a Great Black-backed Gull also apparently intent on holding back the tide LOL. It didn't work of course.- delia todd

Defiance
A Cormorant was further off-shore on a line of rocks that was about to be swamped by the in-coming tide. It appears he's determined not to move .... think he's trying to better King Canute LOL Yesterday's puzzle well done those who had a go. As you all saw the Ringed Plover on the right and the...- delia todd

Emerging
Ferdie, my friendly Pheasant, came to see us as we put the feed out for the birds at Mause. I was actually rather pleased with this picture... so I do hope it appeals to you as well.- delia todd

Growing up
I don't seem to post too many Great Tits, then suddenly two consecutively. This immature (which I think is a female), was waiting for a chance to get onto the peanut butter on the small branch.- delia todd

Framed
You wouldn't think that squirrel is about 6 feet back from the fence with the Pheasant! Either that is a different pheasant, or he's moulting. Can't remember which now! But Ferdie (my usual one) does like to jump up on that rail so I usual put a few seeds there. Saturday Fun- delia todd

Screened
A Robin was trying to hide behind some twigs, not very successfully really. I've begun to notice more and more that some Robins have an all-red face, others varying amounts of grey on the cheeks and forehead. I cannot work out why, so will be starting a thread in the ID forum later, linking...- delia todd

I don't know if it's the same bird, but this Chaffinch seems to have a bit more male colouring on him than the last picture I showed you of an Immature male.- delia todd

Danger zone?
On our way back from Glen Mar, we called in for a brief visit to the Mause Feeders. A female Great Spotted Woodpecker was on the nuts. The Coal Tit would appear to be right beneath her, but in fact is about a foot beyond.- delia todd

Inland fisher
Every now and then I like to head north for a change to get a change of scenery. We stopped at the top of the Cairnwell for a cup of coffee but, as per normal for me the weather was foul and we couldn't see the slopes at all! So soon continued towards Braemar. Half way along I turned off the...- delia todd

Aliens have arrived!!
On my way back from Stracathro (remember the kite day?), we stopped for a coffee break at the far end of Kinnordy. There wasn't much to see that late afternoon that was within range of my camera, but looking around I saw something odd in the far distance. So got my camera on it to see if I could...- delia todd

Blue Tits never seem too shy to join in!
After a short session on my Patch, we called in at the Craighall feeders. First down to the fatballs were some Long-tailed tits along with a young Blue Tit. I think the Long-tailed tit flock has broken up now. Today none were to be seen at either feeding area, the last week only one came in to...- delia todd

Tree tops
On my patch one day I saw a blob on top of a tree (must be the best part of a quarter of a mile away). Zooming in it proved to be a Buzzard. There seems to be a fine crop of pine cones there too!- delia todd

What a scruff
I think I've told you before that Magpies are pretty rare in this area, but they are becoming a little more visible. The last two to three years I've had occasional visits from one or two and have heard them from our car park. This is one that called in last August. They usually hang around (or...- delia todd

Having a rest
Some miles further on I stopped to check out two blobs in a tree - turned out to be yet another Red Kite pair!! Just a few years ago we wouldn't have seen any at all in the area and here we'd come across two pairs in a few miles. Just amazing how they're spreading, obviously due to the release...- delia todd

It's all to do with the tail
During a recent visit to Loch of the Lowes I learned that the way to tell Red Squirrels apart was to check their tails. So now I'm trying to make sure I get a picture showing the tail. Not got very far with that yet I'm afraid- delia todd

Two little ones
Arriving at my Patch, we sat by the lochan to eat our lunch and to see what might be about this mid-August day. An adult Little Grebe appeared and from the distance we were away we could see another. It wasn't until I studied the pictures, that I realised the closer one had to be a youngster...- delia todd
