Pot Pourri
Re: Pot Pourri
Here is September's video. Highlights include, a fly pretending to be something else. And a high wire bird which is a first for me.

Re: Pot Pourri
Thanks Willpar. Another delightful mix. My own particular favourite was the cock pheasant who thinks he's a kangaroo.
PS I think the stripey fly was one of the larger species of Hoverfly.

Re: Pot Pourri
Thank you Js. I did look up the fly and seems it is a hornet hoverfly. Yes, I laughed at the pheasant with the way it was running. But did like the kestrel on the power cable. First time in getting a video of one of those.

October was a good month for fungi, hundreds of them. A mammal staying dead still. A high wire act with a very long tail. All revealed in Wild Westcountry October.

Re: Pot Pourri
I was wondering who was going to blink first, yourself or the squirrel

Spectacular fungi shots, very entertaining.

Re: Pot Pourri
Thank you JS. was spoilt with the fungi, have never seen so much of it. Did wonder why the squirrel never moved. They usually do.

A lot of November was wet and windy. But did manage to get eight minutes worth. Plenty of fungi still at the time of filming. Colourful bird in the hawthorn, a berry eater on the pyracantha. A large bird that was not fazed in being filmed.

Re: Pot Pourri
December was a challenge to say the least, with only a few days of good weather. So on Boxing day I took a walk down to the lake. Taking clips along the way. So the walk comes first in the video and the clips I got before that comes last.
