I did take some of a sparrow hawk in my grandads garden, but they didn't come out to well...

Excellent pics guys!

On the way home tonight sitting at the roadworks on the M8 going nowhere fast and becoming increasing agitated with people cutting in in front of me, some sunshine shone through the aggression, a hawk caught my eye as I travelled at 5mph, watched it hover above its target for 30 secs and then swoop down like a fighter jet, nice break from "the road to hell"

please do NOT feed grey squirrels - they are vermin (ask your local RSPCA)...

WOW to all those shots! There is another forum I'm a member of; which focuses on pictures alone; its ephotozine.com. Some AMAZING shots there too, and if you register (free) you can create your own portfolio of shots that others can comment on. I highly recomend it!

Keep showing us your shots tho!

Saw a buzzard at lunchtime, circling in search of something small and furry. Shouldn't have been a long wait, there is ample rodent wildlife in the fields surrounding the factory.

Cheers,

Gaz

Is that a grey heron? These things kept helping themselves to our fish from the pond in our garden in Kent some years ago. By the time we discovered it was them they had decimated the population of the pond by half.
Nice Pics . Thanks
