stunning mate – I know I was a few feet away from one the other day at High Force he was sat on a branch – the only thing was another branch was blocking his view – but they seem so tame – great shot
Hi Steve, I was at Thornton force at Ingleton in Yorkshire when this fella arrived..
We get them in our back garden but usually they are gone as soon as you step outside which is why I was so surprised at how fearless he/she seemed at this location, appreciate the great comments Steve…

Such a beautiful shot! Great you could get so close! Wondering…….. did you pay your model with a bit of grain? lol!
LOL, Well actually didn’t need to, there was another photographer that was taking some shots too, he had just eaten and was being fed by his crusts, he flew of eventually after finding a worm, glad you like it my friend.
