    good to see you in the homeland, you got some cracking weather on your visit, and wonderful video and still of the peregrins and the chicks, I do love the contrast of birds of prey along the coast with the sea in the background, I was in Ramsey in Wales last week and thoroughly enjoyed watching the buzzards hunting along the coast, great video, and see you no the next one.

    • @RichardBirchett
      @RichardBirchett  Месяц назад +1

      Cheers mate,
      It was great to be back on home turf and to catchup with the local Falcons was magical! Yeah they certainly do zap against the sea background, plus their blueness against the scene really gives them some punch. Ah nice, you've been traveling around quite a bit, much catchup on your latest on Puffins I think.. Cheers R

    Can't beat local knowledge Richard. Me and daughter spent three days on the cliffs near Banff but we could not get them to come in close. Then again we didn't know where they had nested (or if they even had!) Surprisingly they spent most of the time annoying gulls out at sea😂😂 Having said that like you sitting on the cliffs, spending time with my daughter and not seeing anyone else for three days was worth the effort anyway! All the best mate, cracking video (again!)👍👍

    • @RichardBirchett
      @RichardBirchett  Месяц назад

      Thanks Scott, that's so nice for you to spend time together, they can be tricky species but when you get charmed with a view or close encounter it really does gives you the best BUZZ!
      It really is all about just being out in nature and for me being back home really did fill me with joy! All the best mate and thanks again for checking it out. 🙏

I was pleased with the images and video and without any disturbance which was the main thing for me. Hope you enjoy the next one from the UK coming tomorrow. Thanks Rich 👍
