A very quiet morning at Cardiff Bay yesterday was very much a case of "quality over quantity". A meagre catch of the usual warblers was punctuated with a new Cetti's, a Kingfisher and a species we don't catch very often...

Ti looks on expectantly as Pliers removes the star of the morning from a bag... |

Behold! A sparrowhawk! We catch these often but they
tend to leave the net before we get to them...

The eyes have it! You can't fail to be impressed by the eyes of a sparrowhawk. |

Ti with our other star. Kingfishers are always impressive. |
Look at the talons on that Sparrowhawk! From Findlay
ReplyDeleteHi Findlay,
ReplyDeleteThe talons were rather big - I did feel for Wayne (Pliers) when the bird grabbed him!
Cheers

Nice! Also, I hate you. :)
