Another angle (possibly another bird)
Another image that is lost, I will have to try a different method of loading them, so if I remove the original, the image will remain here

Yet another beauty tiger. We used to see them regularly round here but sadly another species which seem to be crammed out as green spaces and wooded areas make way for more housing. The avian population seem better at regulating their numbers than the human population is,.

They are quite a distance from me, I think they bring them off the hills in winter, they use them for Santa's sleighs in and around the area.

Got a Red Deer...………………

Not been out much lately, combination of Gall stones playing up and poor weather, a recent couple of images on a small pond in Perth.

Gallstones - big ouch. I admire your dedication to be out and about in this arctic weather. Keep well. Beautiful pictures.
