Juvenile Kingfisher at the Buckingham Palace end of St James's Park in London, last weekend. #birds

Pelican reflection. St James's Park, London, recently. #birds

Egyptian geese last Saturday in Victoria Park, east London. #birds

The recent deer rut in Bushy Park, London. Basic evolutionary biology: the stag with the most photographers following him must be most attractive to the hinds.

Red deer stag. Bushy Park, London.

Been away ten days but came back today to find Glasgow Kingfishers pretty much exactly where I'd left them. A hi-vis man was closing this section of the Kelvin Walkway near the Botanics; said it would be closed for about a week but will be open at the weekend (?) #birds

One of two Otters I saw on the River Clyde near Richmond Park in Glasgow this morning. Didn't seem to mind the rain.

I was watching the deer rut down there in Bushy Park the other day, beside the water at Brick Bridge, when this lad landed in nearby. Adult male Kingfisher, south-west London. #birds

Peregrine Falcon on Battersea Power Station this morning. I didn’t have time to wait for a closer view of the Peregrine, plus I’d just had an argument with a security guard who hadn’t read their own photography policy. #birds

An explosion of waders - Redshank, Knot, Black-Tailed Godwit and more - probably flushed by a raptor we didn’t get sight of. RSPB Morecambe Bay earlier this week. #birds

Advice from the walls of London. This one was in Whitechapel. It’s an ad for a video game; I don’t think the game is about pigeons. #birds

Pigeon got places to be. Euston, London. #birds

Cormorants on a grey day at Leighton Moss, Lancs. #birds

Snipe, Leighton Moss. #birds

Post-Barn Owl sunrise, from Leighton Moss in Lancashire, this morning.

Of course the problem with owls is that they generally cut about at night, when its dark. Barn Owl, half an hour before sunrise today at RSPB Leighton Moss, Lancashire. #birds

Pics from a walk by the Lancaster Canal early this morning, near Carnforth, Englandshire. Kingfisher, Heron, a hot air ballon and Kestrel vs Rook. #birds

Posting one of these seems to be fashionable today.

Kingfisher by the River Kelvin in the West End of Glasgow last week. This is pretty much as it came out the camera - a crop, some light NR, cloned a twig out of the corner. #birds
