I will try and post some pics of the f**king deer that keeps eating my beans and pepper plants!!

 

 

This was last year the day after I had filled the new bird feeder

Judging by how steep your garden is there , are you sure they are not Mountain Goat  :D

I know a beautiful bird they are. They are very rare on the RSPB amber list. They are also not meant to be in the Pennines, well that's a load of crap cos where I live is part of the North Pennines!

You are right now that I have had a proper look at the picture...I was brought up to know British birds and wildlife my granda taught me the names, of course it helps living deep in the countryside. We get a sparrowhawk in our garden snatching a sparrow out of the bushes now and again

I agree Peter, last year was a family of 4 but this year this one is on her own.

 

I sat for 15 minutes last week while she demolished all the bird seed in the feeder, no more than 30 feet away and she was not bothered at all.

 

We live right in the centre of the town but right at the end of a dead end street, past the turning circle, right on the edge of the ravine with the creek at the bottom. I have heard the Coyote's but have not seen them yet. Have seen a ground hog a couple of times as well this year as well as our regular fox.

 

The racoon's are a menace though

Well done and thanks to our Ste! Some lovely pictures there mate - thanks for sharing. I can't make my mind up whether my favourite is the swallow chicks (probably) or the red breasted Linnet. They're all good.

 

Cheers mate.

:thumbsup:

 

Thanks Peter. Cant make my mind up between the swallows or the nuthatches.

I've recently sold my camera so I can upgrade. Just wasn't getting the quality I wanted. Was using a cannon EOS 350D. Don't no what to get next thought.

Bloody hell Tom! They're amazing.

 

You are obviously more than just a happy snapper.

I used to go out with my camera every chance I could, became a massive hobby. Not been upto much with it this year and thought selling it to fund a new one would give me the kick I needed to start it up again, but, I spent the money on records instead haha. I do miss going out with the camera though.

Thanks for the comment, Peter!

Martyn. Got the bug but find it so hard to fit everything in, Match fishing, Nighters, Photography.

I,m hoping this new camera body I,m after is going to come in under 2K but will have to wait and see what Canon come up with.

Love the swift pictures mate
