Ravens mobbing Goshawk.

Its good to know that Goshawks are in my area in W. Devon, I occasionally see one over our place and on this day two Ravens ( which nest very close by) were mobbing a female right above our field.I grabbed my camera and managed to get some record photos .

Garganey.

It has been the best spring I can remember for Garganey, this small duck has been turning up in quite a few differant locations fairley close to home. Garganey are unique among British Ducks, being a summer visitor, but still a scarce breeder in the U.K.with just over a hundred pairs.These photos are from Walmsley (Cornwall) and Tamar Lakes on the Cornwall/Devon border. Still unable to get close enough to one though.
