Some time this year i won a free pass to The International Centre For Birds  Of Prey. This is one of the few birds that were on display,but i cant recall the name, but what a joy to see these great birds flying and so close too.I must go back when the weather gets warmer.

  6. I would have gone with Eagle Owl as well. Great shot.

    The chaffinch with the growth is an interesting picture - I wonder how birds with such a clear "issue" manage to keep going - I assume it cant be a difficult for the bird as we imagine.

    Cheers and thanks for linking to WBW - Stewart M - Melbourne.

  11. If you want it, I can give it to you. It is Cinderford industrial estate by the Rowen tree on the second grid. I will be there tomorrow, if it doesn't rain. I hope there is more berries after they raided it.
