@bluenotebob a French Christmas variation?

As in "a partridge in a pear tree"? ... or on the table on Xmas day? Well, I certainly hope not - but given the locals take great delight in killing just about everything that moves, I wouldn't put it past them.

I went to Exminster Marsh yesterday on my way to Cambridge.

Now there's a female Blackcap in the garden. Hope she and the male get on OK.
(That's a female Greenfinch on the right, looking slightly afraid!)

Slightly better pics - she didn't mind me opening the back door. Male is still around.

On the way back from Cambridge I went to Ham Wall RSPB reserve.
Loads of Great, Blue and Long Tailed Tits. Gadwall and Teal, Lapwing, Water Rail, Willow Warbler, Marsh Harrier and although I’d gone to see the Starling murmuration which was bloody spectacular, my bird of the day was a very confiding Goldcrest.
I’ve probably missed a few bits and pieces! Redwing and Gadwall….

Wildlife photography is a passion of mine, whether from the bike, the kayak or walking. A selection of mine, mostly local to home and all in Scotland. Some from my phone, some from my GoPro, but most from my DSLR and telephoto lens.
Puffin out at Lunga in the Treshnish Isles.
The ospreys are local to me and can only be reached by kayak. I watched the smaller male bring the pike to the nest and pass it to the female. She picked it up in her beak and took off to eat it elsewhere, transferring it to her own talons just after that image was taken.
The young otter was very inquisitive while I was kayaking locally.
Red squirrel is in my garden, the kingfisher just outside of town and the seal surfaced just in front of my kayak, wrestling with a thornback ray, just north of Oban.
