:lol: Thanks very much! So many people are feeding them these days that they have become low level, urban Red Kites! I have avoided the temptation to feed them so far. Apparently they are naturally nomadic and would normally travel great distances in a day but because they are being fed they, unsurprisingly, are tending to remain in the area of the food. It is quite impressive when you get up to 30 of them all diving for the same food! :eek:

You surely nailed this one, Shalu!! Love all the water droplets, and the incredible sharpness of the fish.

Thanks Mike. The Coronavirus lockdown has really given me time to appreciate the wildlife that’s around me at home and these forums with the skill, knowledge and enthusiasm of its members has given me the motivation to try to capture it. Key amongst all this has been your always supportive comments so thank you very much. I really do appreciate the time that you and so many of the other contributors to the Birds Forums take to comment on the photographs here. My thanks go to you all.
