We saw Buzzards everywhere on a daily basis, these ones were seen at Gigrin farm, the Peregrine (record shots) appeared from nowhere on the coast as we were watching dolphins!

Osprey






For two days running I have had fantastic views of this Osprey, I have had a problem with distance,light and sun position so I feel pics could have been a lot better. However my enjoyment has come from actually seeing this amazing raptor and watching it hunt and catch fish. The photos are just a bonus!!
