Always a pleasure to see a kingfisher on the river. This male stands tall, watching something. #birds #kingfisher #photoftheday #nature

Today, the spotlight is on this dipper, practising her spooky look for Halloween. #birds #dipper #halloween #nature #photography #spotlight

Female Kestrel looking majestic in the park this morning. #birds #kestrel #raptor #majestic #nature #naturephotography

I believe I can spy, The rodents trembling as I fly .... #crooningkestrel #birds #raptors #birdofprey #nature #humor #humour

Always good to see a kestrel in the morning. This male is quite a regular visitor to the floodlights at the Hive Stadium in Edinburgh. #birds #kestrel #raptor #naturephotography #birdofprey

The auditions for this year's Christmas panto, "The Hunchback of Notre Dame", are off to a flying start! I'd give it to the Grey Wagtail.... #birds #wagtail #panto #christmas #hunchback

Hebe, goddess of youth, gazes fondly over a young Robin, who has drunk deeply from her cup of vitality. It's all Greek to me. #birds #greek #gods #mythology #robin

All the #birds seem quite #assertive this morning. There may be #shenanigans ahead. #goldfinch #chiffchaff #bluetiti #nature #photography

Great to be back on the river this morning. Lovely to see a male kestrel too, chasing down a vole or mouse, it looks like. #birds #kestrel #raptor #vole #nature #naturephotography

Mrs K and I are having a short break just down the coast from #Tighnabruaich. The first neighbour dropped in to say hello. #birds #chaffinch #scotland #nature

I've been frustrated trying to spot the kingfisher on the river these past few weeks, so I thought I'd paint one. This is from a photo of Sorcha the Magnificent at the start of the year. #birds #kingfisher #painting #art

Juicy berries and juvenile starling. I love how the berry highlights match the starling's markings. #birds #starling #juvenile #berries

Experimenting with oil pencils and watercolour. The reference photo was an American Kestrel we saw in Peru. #art #kestrel #raptor #watercolour #oils

Minding my own business this morning when I was mooned by a Grey Wagtail on a discarded shopping trolley. Another one off the bucket list. #birds #wagtail #mooned

One of my favourite photos from a couple of years ago. African Eagle Owl in the pouring rain #birds #owl #raptor #africaneagleowl #rain #eyes

These juvenile Long-Tailed Tits are just about to change their eyeliner colour. The adult yellow is just starting to push through the fledgling red. #birds #longtailedtit

Good to see the residents out and about this morning. #birds #chiffchaff #dipper #songthrush #kingfisher #wren #moorhen
