really nice, very jealous :) number 2 with both facing you pips it for me. How far away from them are you?

Live up in Sheffield and always trying to find 1 let alone a pair to photograph!

Less than 15 yards away nicely hid under my scrim net
 
Lovely to see two together, shame about the beak shadow in #2 but still the best of the two with them both facing you ... looks like a great location you have found :)

Didn't really notice the beak shadow
To be honest I've been using his location for the last 6 years or so with thousands of shots on my hard drive

Oh well, glad you've been able to put the site to good use then, I wish I had a reliable regular spot to see these beautiful birds. :)
 
I have never had the luck to shoot one. You get two at one go. Am I jealous! Great photos.
