    Wow! I think this is one of my favourites, absolutely stunning. It must have been beautiful to sit, watch and listen. What a precious moment!

    Hey all, I was in the local park that is known to have a Buzzard in it, I believe one of these is a Buzzard but unsure of the other two.. looks like possibly a buzzard and two random birds, one looks to me like a crow and the other a potential second buzzard?

    Difficult to make out but if I was pushed to give an opinion I'd say a Buzzard being mobbed by a pair of Ravens.....

    Fantastic badger watching session in Dublin...IR pics with the trail cam, no chance to take proper photos when it is so dark without attracting attention.

    Great Tit helping itself to some sunflower seeds. Taking one at a time and flying back to the hedge for a nibble.
    Phone camera so not great.

    This poor Robin came in the window earlier, a bit dazed after trying to escape through the windows. Flew off after a few minutes, so hopefully it'll be fine.

    This trout was too big to hold and seconds after the lower photograph it slipped out of the herons beak. I don’t know who was more gutted me or the heron.
