From a most welcome change in the weather, and a brief visit to the farm to check in with her.⁠

Goshawk.⁠
⁠
Literally two minutes of action made over forty hours of waiting and watching, worthwhile.⁠

Kestrel.⁠
⁠
Anglesey is a place I've only visited once and I really liked it. Rugged, wild coastline, cliffs and some great wildlife.⁠
⁠
I was out looking for choughs on this day, when this male kestrel caught my eye, hunting using the breeze coming in off the sea, to help hover.⁠
⁠
As I was pretty much level with him, I could get the sea in behind, as a backdrop.⁠

Peregrine Falcon.⁠
⁠
A bird I seem to hear before I see it, more often than not. That haunting wailing call alerts me to one being around, and then I'm scanning the skies for the fastest animal on the planet...⁠

After her appearance on BBC's Autumnwatch last night, there could be only one subject for this morning's post.⁠
⁠
Mrs Fluffy, the little owl.⁠
⁠
Looking less splashy here, on a sunny day this week.⁠
⁠
Thanks to the researcher (Bobby) who contacted me during the week, and arranged to share the 4K footage of the little owl (from my YouTube channel) with the programme.⁠
⁠
Not sure about being called "Peter" though, reminded me of being in trouble with Mum, many years ago!⁠

Lobster anyone?⁠

A female otter tucks into the head of a lobster she'd just brought ashore from a sea loch.⁠

Otters.⁠
⁠
I still can't believe we managed to get shots here, as everything was wrong. Wind in the wrong direction and the cub clearly knew we were there.⁠
⁠
To be fair, we weren't expecting the mother to run around behind where we were hiding, but once she did, we had to stay where we were.⁠
⁠
They groomed for a few minutes, before both continuing on their way, back out fishing. ⁠

Peanut the red squirrel kit.⁠

Take one baby squirrel, add two seasoned wildlife photographers, and you get a cooing mess of lots of awws and ahhs.⁠
⁠
It was so cute. ⁠
