Amaryllis belladonna 'Rose Fonce'

Wonderful colour . Great capture with the hover fly flying in .

Fabulous photo!

Thanks. I wish I had had my camera with me this morning when there were a couple of buzzards flying low and hunting. I am on a knoll, so after they come over the little valley behind me, they end up being low over my backyard.

Oh wow, I bet that was a sight.

That would of made a fantastic photo . I once was right next to a big black buzzard at Coombe Abbey park here it was on an open perch in the grounds.

During mating season, there are 7 of the guys chasing 1 female. They like the area just up the street because it continues to Serra de Santa Barbara, the highest point on the island - just over 1000 meters high.

Lol like humans at times then. Yes they like go be high up dont they they go at suvh a speed to when diving down.

The most amazing event is when they catch the wind blowing so strong that they can stay in the same place without flapping their wings.

Yes I ve only ever seen them do that once in the country side over the fields in Astley a few miles away
