A gorgeous pair of Peregrines have decided to nest up on top of Loughborough Carillon Tower this year and they’re stunning to see

There’s always been the pair in Leicester I could see but these 2 are almost literally on my doorstep and now I can’t get enough

They look very imposing watching over the park from their vantage point

It was quite funny watching her shout at him from the nest and then him flying off like they’d just had an argument

Mr & Mrs Mandarin Duck having a nice relaxing morning

There’s something about ducks, maybe it’s going to the park as a child to feed them that I still to this day smile when I see a duck. And when you pay attention to your surroundings you see they come in so many shapes, sizes and all the colours

A gorgeous Little Owl at @bradgate_park_trust

I was talking about the birds I was watching with someone yesterday and was explaining not all owls are nocturnal, a few of the owls we get in England are diurnal - they are up during the day - and Little Owls are one of these owls

A Great Crested Grebe and their reflection

I love when on a still day you can capture such gorgeous reflections, there’s something special about those photos

Great Crested Grebes are such odd birds and can be a right pain to watch when they’re diving for fish and come up the other side of the lake

But when they sit still, drift along and dance with their partners they look so serene and beautiful

This Kestrel has caught themselves some lunch

Not entirely sure what it is they’ve caught but they’re holding on tight so must be tasty

The Common Pochard’s not so common a sight around where I normally trek

I love that deep red head and the bright red eyes
