Happy Easter Linda and Marsh...

Not from the Haugh but a place called Langlands Moss in Eastkilbride
(I do miss Wendy and her Kestrel Colin )

Lovely photo's and a kestrel with blue sky

Lovely, lovely and lovely!

Great photos. Your Blackcaps look lighter in colour to those in my locality or is that a trick of the light?

Thanks Guys, sun may have been shining JS and there are a few twigs in the photo with the Bcs so that may have something to to with how the photo turned out! I will try do better next time
