Love the camera. Could use one on the photo tour of the several political places here in town :)

 

On the subject of crossbreeding, many species hybrize and that is especially true of ducks. Lots of wild cross-duck combinations. Our notion of "species" is not exactly the same as theirs. :)

Saw a little felleh flying into this niche' in an old Yew tree the other day & thought he was just after insects for young or something................but after waiting 20minutes for the fecker to come out, decided to have a closer look............and was amazed to find it NESTING there!!!!!!!!.......I've never seen this bird nest in places like this or heard of it either.........what do you think it is.......(will post another pic. later).........

i have never seen or heard of a l t tit nesting in anything other than its own round nest. that is amazing :blink: can you get a better pic of the bird sat??

 

No chance :no: ............thats as far in as i can get with the camera.........& it had to go on manual focus for that with me holding the cam. above my head & in the crack of the yew.......its very unusual though......some ornatholigist guy is coming to verify the nest in the next few days.......hopefully the squirrels won't have the fecker before then!
