Enjoy.

Sparrowhawks are the devil reincarnate on FB.
At the same time, nothing wrong with taking feeders down. Might help to clean them.
Feeding the birds means feeding the birds. All of them.

Fun morning around Portrush. Great Northern Diver feeding in Portrush Harbour. Merlin hunting at Ramore Head and plenty of Purple Sandpipers around Ramore Head.
Earlier this month, I actually got my county ✅ Merlin and forgot to post it. 162 for County Antrim. 136 this year.
