And yes, we did find the Kestrel.  He was sitting in a tree watching us.  The last picture below was taken using the extended zoom on the camera which usually gives rubbish results but I think this on

We are very pleased to see that the Tawny owl pair have returned to their roost just outside our local nature reserve.  They are easily seen when you know where to look but I could only get a picture

@michael-ibk, @TonyQ, @PeterHG, @JimS and @Peter Connan, thank you all so much.  

That drive around the lake and marsh was quite amazing for very amateur bird watchers like us.  Everything was so close, we were like kids in a sweet shop.  It was just one bird after another after another.
