    On my local patch this morning one of the local pairs of Raven were courting and also the local pair of Peregrines were seen well flying past fairly low calling.

    Thank you
    Pure luck really. Was heading through a wood to take a photo of a waterfall and there it was having a wee feed. Quick snap then left it well alone. Juvenile Buzzard. Didn’t look happy lol.

    A few from the weekend, i spent a few hours around lissadell and was lucky to witness a huge flock of Barnacle Geese on their way to their grazing fields, this is an annual migration with numbers in the thousands, they roost on Inis Murray and come onto the mainland to graze, the sights and sounds of this flock going straight over my head was amazing.
