I have been spending many happy hours sitting outside in the glorious weather we have been experiencing in England, but unfortunately this has come to an abrupt end and has rained all day today, not good for sitting out but very good for the farmers who have just planted crops, this will be a great help for germination.
However I will be very grateful when I am allowed back to light duties on the garden, since my operation I have not been allowed to do any gardening ,of course I cannot see any reason as to why I cannot sit on my tractor and cut the grass, but I have to do as I am told, nearly!!!!!!,I have also since the last post had a nasty infection but a dose of antibiotics appears to have cleared this up, so all is well again.
I have seen the Peregrines on numerous occasions , mostly with no images taken as the birds have invariably approached me very sneakily from behind as I sit on the patio with the sun behind me to help with the images.
I have however managed to get some non too good images ,it appears something has gone wrong with my large lens so it will have to be returned

Then a Sparrowhawk arrived, I must admit I find it very difficult to follow the bird at the speed they travel and by the time I had the focus point on the bird, I was taking images virtually into the sun, hence the poor quality images. |
Followed by a kestrel.
I hope you have enjoyed your visit as much as I did in the getting of the images, unfortunately the Peregrine images are not my best but I have also found a problem with my large lens, hopefully I can fix it or the makers can.
