Great shots there Ken. 7D detail comes to the fore, huh ?!

Very hard to get eye contact or catchlight with all that stuff in the beak, eh ?!!! ...... :D.

Thanks for the comments. The sunshine was because they were shot a couple of weeks ago, rain today :( , I haven't found the nest but since they feed in the garden I hope they bring the youngsters along to be introduced later on. The only nest I can see is a couple of crows right at the top of the neighbours beech tree, not in good view unfortunately, saw more twigs being delivered today, so construction is still a work in progress.
