What interested me was that the birds were beginning to gather in the tree tops ~ it was about an hour before sundown.

Love the gnarly dead branches against the blue. I saw loads of rooks in a group of trees today.

I think these were rooks, I love that blue sky!

I also saw two gorgeous Red Kites, one right over the lorry. The russet colour was so clear aginst the sky. Plus two great 'fantasy photo ops' of Buzzards perching, I wish.

SS were you on the M40 around junction 2 for those red kites? We see them there but the one time we went there specifically there were none to be seen!
There was a buzzard over here yesterday morning I got a photo but it's too blurry. Nothing like that lovely shot that lulu got.
Thanks N3, there was something I liked about this one, the colour or the space, not sure which?

These were on the M4 between Chieveley and Reading Sticki. I know the ones you are thinking of, there's a nature reserve there and they're always above the Mway. I went once and saw seven in the sky at the same time on a brilliant blue sky day. It's a shame they disappeared when you went, really bad luck :(((
Lulu's shot is incredible I agree.
