Dont arf make you itch lol The Ravens normally nest in the far corner about 50/60 yards into the quarry on the right as you stand at the fence . You can normally hear them kronking, Peregrine falcons should still be there if they have nested this year. Ticks never used to be a problem up there as far as I'm aware but I tend to spend more time up there in the winter so maybe they're not as bad then.

Been blessed last 12 month saw first Osprey at Jeffery Hill last Year . I think that an "osprey" is a Pandion haliaëtus ("águila pescadora" / "àliga pescadora" here in spanish and catalonian language respectively). I have seen hundreds of them, every time I have come to The Ebro river Delta and also in many reservoirs in the Prepyrenaican and Pyrenaican mountains. The one I saw more close was in my voyage of recent married with my wife from the window of the train: we come from Valencia to Cuenca, the rail-road follows the Palancia Rriver (with some reservoirs) and I saw this eagle in a telephon stick at the moment she starting to fly, at 1,5 - 2 m, without binoculars! 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
