A visitor

Well I havent been around in blog land for a while, life has taken over a bit, but that sort of thing happens every so often.

A few weeks ago I got a visit from this lovely bird. I think it is a Grey Falcon. I was in the kitchen doing the dishes and heard something crash into the fence and then saw this guy fly up into the tree, realising it was the wrong colour to be a magpie I got the camera and went to see what it was. He was just sitting there not fussed by me at all until I walked around by the fence to try to get a photo from the front of him, and from behind the gas bottles a blackbird took of (frightened by me I guess) and that was it he was off after it, definitely a bird of pray. Just lovely.


And a close up.
