Nice one Iain. We see them here in Spain but they are sleeker!

I think Tres Amigos or Three Friends is more appropriate!

That's one of the things I particularly like about watching nature, I don't do enough of it. Even watching the vermin seagulls around my home can be entertaining and enlightening, only yesterday I was watching some seagulls mobbing a buzzard, they drove it away eventually. It was far too far away to photograph, mere specks in the sky but watching them was amazing.

I've been house bound the last few days on domestic duties, while Jan recovers from a minor op. So my attention turned to the families of birds visiting a bird bath outside the window. I videoed 9 bluetits trying to bath and drink at the same time! In fact it was hard to isolate one without another tail or a beak poking into shot. But here's one...cropped to exclude sibling parts.... Attachment: E5F84814-C14A-4BB3-9D49-3FF0AD9C9CC0.jpeg (Downloaded 22 times)

We also had a family? of 6 magpies in the garden. They all gathered round a small acer and were jumping up and down like they were on elastic. I assumed they were trying to grab caterpillars or grubs off the leaves? The adults were more sensible ...they landed and stayed in the tree. Far less expenditure of energy. Kids...they never listen. ![]() Attachment: 6979FCA2-6283-4074-89A8-6C243F98880F.jpeg (Downloaded 22 times)
