Surveying in Drayton, Oxfordshire last week I had this Peregrine feeding on a Linnet atop of a pylon. A blue coloured ring HB on its left leg. Found out its a male and was ringed in Bath, Somerset in May 2024. #Birding #Oxfordshire #Peregrine

@ClevedonMoths @Photos2Print Nice one Paul..Clouded tiger cat ....recently split . I was there a few weeks ago and had great views of probably the same cat.....stunner

@Photos2Print Northern Oncilla.

Disturbingly, there was a cat hanging around the bird feeders at Mirador El Roble, Colombia today. It appeared to be a relatively young tabby. I looked around for a water pistol but there was none to hand.... 😀

A lovely 1st winter Caspian Gull from WSR today......no sign of the Kumliens Gull #Birding #Cheshire #Gulls #Caspain

Delighted the Kumliens Gull has returned to the Mersey sandbanks again for the 4th year running . In adult plumage now. Unfortunately it has lost the lower left leg but seems fit and healthy. Leucistic Herring Gull and 1st w Caspian Gull also #Birding #Cheshire #Gulls #Kumliens

A quick stop at the WSR on my way to Wonderful Wales produced a 1st winter Caspian Gull. At the River Clwyd manged good views of the Lesser Yellowlegs and lastly got lucky at Llanddulas for the Surf Scoter after dipping at fishermans pier. Great day #Birding #Wales #Cheshire

Back from the Colombian Trip so gave the localish scarcities a visit. Shore lark at Mow Cop is a beauty, pleased the grackle stayed and always nice to see a local Lesser Scaup #Birding #Merseyside and #Cheshire

So happy to see this Giant Anteater today in Colombia. An incredible mammal with a 60cm tongue used to devour thousands of insects per day #Colombia #Anteater #mammals

Always a good day when you see a Beautiful Jay #Birding #Colombia #Montezuma

The Clouded Tiger Cat seen today in the western Andes, Colombia at 2700 metres. Incredible to see this beautiful creature which was only recently described in 2024. Not much bigger than a domestic cat and lives in the cloud forest #cloudedtigercat #cats #Colombia
