J Darcy 5,871 Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 i had a young lad called Buckshot come down to go on the drink with me friday night so i said i would have a walk with him and see if we could photograph a couple of nests. I will return with the big camera to photograph the adult birds feeding this week..... no birds were disturbed of course.... but i do love seeing the strange places they nest. Here are a few pics of what i showed him over the past 2 days... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
