Wow, some really fantastic shots there. Mostly I think they're wondering whether there are any small cute fluffy things they can eat for lunch.
ReplyDeleteIn that case, CJ I am glad that I am not a little fluffy thing.
DeleteLovely photos. We went to a falconry centre in the Dales quite a few years ago now. Eleanor was only little and decided she needed the loo. As she was making her way there, a red kite, which was being flown, swooped down right by the side of her and scared her half to death.
ReplyDeleteWas it the falconry at Settle, Jo? The last time we went there we had the chance to fly a barn owl.
DeleteI think it probably was, I had Giggleswick in my mind but that isn't far from Settle. How wonderful being able to fly the barn owl, that must have been quite an experience.
DeleteWonderful photos; I especially like the 2nd one. I wonder if their thoughts are as CJ says or would they totally surprise us.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it is better that we don't know what they are thinking, Margaret.
DeleteThe second photograph is of Ethel a white headed vulture, Margaret.
DeleteMost of those ones look as if they would say "P**s off and leave me alone!" :)
ReplyDeleteI don't think that you spell push like that, Mark.
DeleteHa ha, that made me chuckle.
DeleteWhat wonderful photos Sue. We keep meaning to visit the Suffolk Owl Sanctuary which is too far away from us.. we've been before and it was lovely to see the owls and other birds of prey. Their bird display was excellent too. Right must make a point of going next year. :o)
ReplyDeleteWe visited the Suffolk owl sanctuary when we were on holiday in that area a few years ago, Julie we enjoyed it very much.
DeleteTeach me not to read my posts better.. that should read.. the owl sanctuary is NOT too far away from us...
DeleteI knew what you meant, Julie. I often make the same sort of mistakes. Some of my typing needs a translator to understand.
DeleteMice, mice, gimme mice..
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid it isn't mice that they are given to eat Jessica
DeleteFantastic! Those are real bird eyes
ReplyDeleteThose eyes don't miss anything, Endah
DeleteOh my goodness! Such stunning birds! Those eyes and hissing beaks....xxx
ReplyDeleteI knew that you would like them Dina
ReplyDeleteSuch a proud bird! Awesome Owl! I only saw once near my home!
ReplyDeleteNearly all of these are foreign birds, Malar
DeleteWhat a fabulous array of characters! Some of them look very bad tempered, but then if my hair did what the feathers on some of them do...
ReplyDeleteApparently the vultures are really gentle and the eagles rather grumpy, Janet
