    Is the falcon a captive bird or had we a rare vagrant?

    Another one from the Dodder taken by a friend. This time foxy is stalking a heron instead of a Little Egret. The heron doesn't seem too concerned.

    Sorry, prize-winning "Idiot of the Month" here - I thought you were referring to a new picture that hadn't embedded, not the triple whammy from earlier on. :rolleyes:
