    Mate, i thought you were some sort of proper countryman, if you dont know what the nests are then just say……and by the way, its a red chested cuckoo and the bird feeding it ain’t no thrush or a female blackbird…..

  5. Very nice, spent many summers up and around achiltibuie and Polbain, chasing sea trout and fishing the hill lochs. Would camp for a few weeks at a time and live feral

    Got a place up the Dales in a quiet place off the beaten track , always plenty of cuckoos and had one on the garden wall last week…. Great to see….sat with the Merlin bird app, had a spotted flycatcher checking out an open fronted box i put up 2 years ago and saw a couple of wheatear chasing around calling across the lane, Merlin picked them up no problem.

  10. Nice one mate, stick the pic up of it with the starlings and sparrows mate….house or tree by the way …
  11. Be surprised by a Brambling, they should have migrated by now ?
  12. A pint and Rolf Harris on the box…proper night in
  13. Shot a load in Scotland last year and took them to the island butcher who worked his magic and they were the best tasting burgers I’ve ever had…..handed him 15 geese breasted out and got 70 burgers back….gave him 9 rabbits and no money change pd hands
  14. Nice work Wolfie, waters that are never fished always cast a spell …

  16. It does a job but not 100% ….i had a garden warbler this weekend which is spot on after listening to calls on Utube ….thought it was as I didn’t recognise it !…and a lesser whitethroat…picked up loads of white throat so well pleased …tried to fool it with impression…no joy…sat eating lunch and my stomach made a noise and up popped ‘Rock pigeon ‘
  17. Great posts ….enjoyed the moment and the honesty
  18. Mate, that’s it right there, never mind if you shot a Roe….you go back to basics with this …..
