A pictorial interlude

A couple of people mentioned they liked that Red Kite pic on the last post, so here's a few more pics from the bloke who took it, colleague Mike Weedon's blog, Weedon's World of Nature.

First, a mist-net of spiders' webs thrown over the fenland landscape...


...next, a splendidly fiery-eyed Black-necked Grebe at Orton Brick Pit, Peterborough...


...and finally, a piratical Kestrel attempting to relieve a Barn Owl of his supper up on Deeping High Bank.
