I love the Goldcrest. Europe's smallest bird, which weighs around 6g - the same as a 20p piece. Unbelievably difficult to spot and to photograph, as they don't sit still at all.

If you're looking for the kingfisher, he went that way.

It's Sunday. It's Islay. It's peaceful...
...and then the Wren turns up.

You get a sense of the size of the White-tailed Eagle from these pictures. The other bird is a buzzard, which looks very small next to the WTE. Fascinating to watch the WTE turning upside down while flying to defend himself from the buzzard. #raptor #WTE #buzzard #birds #fight #photography
It's no wonder the hare makes a bolt for it.

I think this might be a Golden Eagle. Anyone know how to tell for sure?
The birds on Islay just get bigger and bigger.

I love the decorations on the pylons on the Isle of Islay. Pure class.

Oops! He forgot the sausages. He only had one thing to do...

Possibly my favourite Kingfisher shot this year. She is a beauty!
