    Not even remotely in the same league as the other photos posted here, I know. :p

    Unfortunately when I moved these from my phone to my computer (they were too big to post as they were) they lost some of their bright colours. I tried to fix them a bit, but they're not as nice. :o

    Also, the "scribbles" on the bottom left of the last photo are there to hide a car.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,424 ✭✭✭bernard0368

    Bernard, what's the name of the animal that has a mouse ( I assume a mouse) in its mouth?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,324 ✭✭✭keps


    @siblers

    Bernard clearly identifies the animal as a Pine Marten in both his pics

    (I am absolutely no expert on rodents - but as this is waterside- I'd guess that is a rat in its mouth)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,424 ✭✭✭bernard0368


    @ siblers It is a pine marten.

    @ keps, I am sure this is a mouse was not big enough to be a rat.

    Today/Dodder Milltown

    An Egret appears once every 4/5 months in our 'neck of the woods'( or maybe that should read in our 'stretch of the river').

    Don't know why - but they are spooked quite easily- as compared to the Heron - a click of a camera from 30 metres can send them on their way:(

    Beautiful bird

    Light-bellied Brent Geese in Dublin last weekend. As discussed in another thread, there's a very low proportion of juveniles this year.

    Fallow Deer during the rut in Phoenix Park - one of the longest fights I've seen, with the darker of the two eventually coming out on top!
