@po_matty It’s a male red footed falcon that visited Holt Heath in Dorset

@Mike95254682 Is this a hobby or a Merlin?

Unfortunately all my images of this male RFF either catching or with food [mostly emperor moths] were just to soft. But who cares, i always feel that seeing RFF in the UK is a privilege.

Nightjar, from a great walk last Saturday in the New Forest

Just about managed to get this Hobby in the frame as it shot past

Great fun watching this very distinctive Weasel

Last spring and summer i didn't see many adders at all, but thankfully i have bumped into a few already this year

Couple more of the same male foraging in the same tree a week later

@Waderworld1 @HOSbirding Cracking bird

Honey Buzzard-adult male, barred morph-summer 2025, a new bird in the system for me, which was nice, not the brightest or contrasting of barred males but a smart individual but annoyingly could go unseen for days on end at times, which brings the season to a close for me.

@Waderworld1 Very interesting behaviour, always something new to learn

@Mike95254682 This was the first time I saw this individual Mike, she was doing 99% of the provisioning as well

Honey Buzzard-ad female-Summer 2025, This individual totally threw me out this year as I believed this to be an ad male dark morph at the start as I have never seen such a solid dark, unbarred, clean & contrasting looking female in the UK before but even so a stunner all the same
