Your Wildlife Sightings!

It's a cracker Johnie would love to see one it's like it's got a white moustache beard thing going on lovely wee bird

 

A great place to see Reed Bunting is Hogganfield Loch Susan. A patch away up the back there's a wee pond and a lot of reeds, so brilliant for Reed Bunting. If you're lucky, you might see a Reed Warbler in amongst the Reeds. I've been lucky just once, but it was a great spot.

 

Somethings in the grass they are after .

 

No exactly wildlife but just a couple of photos on my school runs this week .



A wee lane I have to go down outside Tarbolton to get some kids for school .



Friday at 4 oclock heading down the A77 towards Ayr and the sun is starting to sett behind Arran .



Driving through Prestwick about 10/15 minutes later getting darker but still good sunset IMO .

 

Is that the lane at the War Memorial in Tarbolton?

 

I have noticed that there has been a massive increase in cannibalism amongst the birds in my area. The pigeons are constantly being attacked by the other birds (especially the seagulls) and then eaten. It's fascinating to watch them at times as they seem to work in organised groups, targeting either the weakest one or the youngest ones. I'm amazed at the stupidity of the pigeons who obviously see these attacks on them but just sit there and don't either fly away or choose to nest in the same place year after year. It maybe has gone on for years and I've just never noticed however, it's practically a daily occurrence now and I don't know why. Maybe some of the members on here who obviously know a bit about nature have a better idea

 

No TT , its the lane behind Nielshill caravan park at Mossblown .

 

Just realised TT after I get the wee ones I come along that lane to the memorial on the way to school .

 

Some sort of Grass that is for sure

 

They are different Species of Birds of course and just like different Species of many a Living Creature for various reasons will take prey in their own section of Nature.Gulls are true Masters of finding many a way to a Food Source in countless ways

 

Nice walk down there and through the woods. Best bit is you end up at a pub.

 

Thanks for the info Cidermaster. Yeh, the gulls are definitely the biggest perpetrators with the crows not far behind them

 

This is Colin the Wood Pigeon that visits my garden everyday. I think he has a Pen Pal with one of Scotia’s Pigeons

 

was in the garden yesterday , put some seeds mixed with crumbs where he always appears .

 

Beautiful sky just now

 

Will do Cool Bhoy

 

Spoilt rotten in this thread lately BFL , wildlife and scenery photo,s have been amazing !
( obviously no meaning my efforts of course )

 

@bagforlife It was, I was out for a bit of a wander earlier and the sky was amazing. The camera on my phone doesn't capture the colours very well but it was some sight.
