There were certainly more than three species of birds out there today, but three is the number I’m going to post. There are also three mammal species tonight (two of which are fairly obvious).<\/p>\n

I’ll start with the early morning pair… our local Muscovys, enjoying a natter on the stone wall outside St Laurence Church at Falmer.<\/p>\n

Next come the lunchtime birds… the Muscovys were still around, but it was a lone black-headed gull, standing quietly on a floating branch, that caught my lens.<\/p>\n

The first of the mammals was also lurking around the pond. Yes it’s another of the Falmer rats, huddled up in the tangle at the water’s edge.<\/p>\n

I’d also been out to the local fields, along Ridge Road. I was in search of buzzards but found a small group of roe deer.<\/p>\n

The buzzard did finally show up… but not out by the fields. I spotted this beauty over the car park on my way back to the office.<\/p>\n

So that’s three birds and two mammals.It’s not hard to guess who makes up the final mammal. It’s Pretty and it’s a fox \ud83d\ude09 Her hind leg seems to be improving. She’s been carrying it high for the past week (approximately) but today she seemed to be putting her full weight on it as she moved around the garden… pausing occasionally for a long stretch and yawn.<\/p>\n

Camera note: all photos taken with the Canon 7D and EF 100-400mm f\/4.5-5.6L USM IS lens, apart from the fox photo which was taken with the EF 24-105 F4L IS USM lens.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
