many thanks all :) would it surprise you if i told you i live in a town ? we have a large lawn, and have a park behind the house :) we were sitting in the conservatory a few night ago as a Tawny owl flew into our Lime Tree (its 60 foot tall) and was calling. was too dark for pics though. We also have 2 fox cubs visiting :)

It is interesting how many species are becoming used to Town living , Ian . Happy for people to be around . We've moved into their areas but are sometimes providing food . Maybe they feel safer :thinking:

It’s actually a pigeon I believe, it swooped and caught it before stripping a lot of feathers before flying off with it 🙂
