Reposting as I had a typo in a # The much ignored and underrated Green Finch for #birdoftheday #underrated #photography #wildlife The most common bird on here seems to be the Heron, I've never seen so many picture of Herons.

Buzzard carrying dinner back to the nest for #birdoftheday and #worst as it's quite tragic really for the poor little rabbit 😱 Taken in Scotland and heavily cropped even though I was using a 600mm lens.

Grey squirrel caught in late afternoon autumn sunshine trying to hide in amongst the branches of our walnut tree. Plump and either pregnant or feeding kits. Nikon D3S ISO 3200 as the light was low but the brief sunshine gave me a shutter speed of 1/5000 at F4. #photography #nature #squirrels

Deserted Scottish beach at sunset in 2010, the Isles of Eigg and Rum in the distance. Pristine sand, not a mark on it, which is remarkable considering I was with 2 dogs. Nikon D700 & 20mm @ f18 1/8th second and I must have used a tripod. #photography #scotland #beach #sunset

Diving Red Kite, taken in Scotland about 10 years ago, hand held 600mm. It was taken at a feeding station and is one of a few decent shots from around 400 frames! They're fast and difficult to track but the light saved me in the end. #birds #sunlit #BirdOfTheDay

Such complicated and fascinating little creatures. #photography #nature #macro #wildlife #dragonflies

Our friend from Gaza thanks Trump for the ceasefire “in the right way”

This explains a lot.

Different subject, Highland Cows (or Coos) but still ginger. They were completely focussed on our dogs that my partner had on their leads quite a way behind me so I was able to get quite close without stressing them. Nikon D300 & Nikon 20-35mm lens. #photography #highlandcows #nature #scotland

Red Squirrel, Scottish Highlands 2016 This one has a magnificent tail and I managed to get it all in the frame. Just put some food out, they'll show up, eventually. Nikon D600, F5.6, 1/640, ISO-1800 hand held #nature #wildlife #photography #redsquirrels

Fluffy little Siskin. Taken in Ardnamurchan, Scotland in 2013 Nikon D700, Sigma 300mm + 2x converter. No IS so 1/800th at F8, ISO-200 #photography #birds #wildlife #nature

Did you watch The Hack? I can't believe papers have gotten away with destroying lives for so long. That's why I've signed the petition, set up by Hugh Grant and other phone hacking victims, to demand fair, independent regulation. Join me: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/a-...

Chicken picture - full length this time. I believe the breed is Booted Bantam due to the feathery legs. We had about a dozen, they bred and we had chicks. Sadly all gone now but they all lived to a grand old age. #photography #chickens #nature

Close up of a Fly. I just find insects fascinating, especially in close up. Nikon D700, 90mm Tamron Macro Lens at F11 #photography #macro #nature #macrolovers #insects

Beachcombing Hooded Crows, Isle of Mull, Scotland Nikon D700 600mm handheld #photography #nature #wildlife #birds

Fluffy little Swallow. They were nesting in our holiday cottage on the Isle of Mull, Scotland. Nikon D700, 600mm handheld, ISO-800 #photography #wildlife #birds #nature

Another picture of a chicken, looking splendid. Nikon D700, 600mm hand held #photography #chickens

Hoverfly, doing what it's name suggests. All of the pictures I'm posting are from a back catalogue spread over about 15 years and are quite low resolution to prevent commercial copies. So excuse the quality. #photography #macro #macrolovers #insects

Another squirrel picture, great tufty ears #wildlife #photography #redsquirrels

Red Squirrel, Scottish Highlands. I have so many pictures of these little guys, they really are one of the most photogenic animals ever. Nikon D600, Sigma 600mm (300x2) #wildlife #photography #redsquirrels #scotland

Red Kite, one of my favourite birds alongside Ravens Nikon D700 and Sigma EX 300mm F2.8 + 2X conv. Hand held at 600mm (F6.3 1/800 & 800 ISO) #photography #birds #wildlife

Birds are incredibly clever and photogenic. Nikon D700 and Sigma EX 300mm F2.8 + 2X converter (the Exif says 1600mm focal length but the Sigma tells lies when it's on a matched 2X converter for some reason?) #photography #birds

Closeup of a dragonfly, one of my favourites. Nikon D700 and Tamron 90mm Macro Lens. A very sharp little lens but as always in photography, the light is the first and probably the most important step. #photography #macro #macrolovers

Feeding butterfly Nikon D700 and Tamron 90mm Macro #photography #macro #macrolovers

A pair of Damsel Flies Nikon D700 and ? the Exif says 210mm but I have no idea what lens I used back in 2010. #photography #macro #macrolovers

Bumble Bee up close and personal Nikon D700 and Tamron 90mm Macro Lens (I think)

A Scottish jetty, Loch Morar. In monochrome of course, to add a bit of drama. Nikon D700 and 20mm @ F8 #photography #monochrome #blackandwhite

Camusdarach Beach, Morar. The beach where Local Hero was mostly filmed. A truly beautiful part of the world. #photography #scotland

Immature gull, Scotland - Camusdarach Beach, Morar. The beach where Local Hero was mostly filmed. Nikon D700 and Sigma Ex 300mm F2.8 + Ex 2X converter. #photography

A snail in it's element. #photography #macro #macrolovers

Just one of our chickens back in 2010. Nikon D700 and Sigma Macro lens. They don't get much sharper. #photography #macro #macrolovers

Ring tailed Lemur - what great eyes and tails. Obviously taken in a zoo! 2010 on a Nikon D700 and a Sigma EX 300mm F2.8 #photography #wildlife

Lambs are just babies who like to play. I can't eat them.

I've decided the world has gone mad and so I'm going to start posting some of my back catalogue of photos instead of getting angry. This little hover fly was showing off it's impressive proboscis for me back in 2016. Nikon D600/Sigma 105mm Macro lens. #macro #nature #macrolovers #insectphotography

I truly wish all Americans had full access to our Channel 4 TV, it would be the perfect antidote to Murdoch's shite.

both of danny kruger's parents are south african. i wonder if reform voters think he's really "english". i bet they do.

I’m with Nadia! Reskeet if you are too!

Some Jews have been against Israel right from the start. Albert Einstein refused to see people from Israel from 1948 onwards. He called them 'misled and criminal people'.
