The Birds In The Garden And Everywhere Else Thread

[K23]

During the weekend just gone, I was archiving some old photographs from a trip to Portugal onto an external HDD and amongst them, I came across these 3. They're not good quality photographs by any means so once I was back home and I'd uploaded them all, I probably just looked at these 3 once on my laptop and moved on, however, what I noticed a few days ago whilst moving them, was the times they were taken. The pics are of a Male Hen Harrier, then a Black-Winged Kite followed by an Osprey, all taken on the same day but timed respectively at 16:43:54, 16:44:15 and 16:44:58 so that was 3 different birds of prey in 64 seconds and I doubt I'd even moved from where I'd been standing! For some reason, it's taken me nearly 3 years to notice that!
