Taken Wednesday 7th September as I did not see many birds at close quarters.
Thought that I would post , but then saw that @-Oy- had beaten me to it by a couple of weeks - same location

Great captures, especially the ones in flight. I found those very hard as they don’t stay still long enough for me like Hoverflies
