This is a link to Tawny Owls

I lied -- you will have to do your own searches. Owl, Tawny -- there are a lot of owls to scroll through

but you can look up lots of birds
http://www.birdguides.com/iris/default.asp

The pictures are small -- but that picture of the branchling looking at the branch/its feet is so adorable.

Alice, thank you. I have just found Tonn there! I searched for Greater Spotted Eagle, and there he was, down the page a little.

And a beautiful photograph of a WTE at Mull Scotland on 29/5/2010
I will ask Jo if we should be somewhere else.. with all a' this... :shake:

I copied all this from The Tawny Owl forum. When I posted the link I was just enamored of the Tawny pictures -- but it is a great resource for all kinds of species.

Something totally different but very interesting:

In the Oka Biosphere Reserve, two couples of Siberian cranes (Grus leucogeranus) from Yakutia, named Uchur, Samgym, Sergei and Banyl, are followed by four 24-hour cams - http://www.aif.ru/sterkh - from mid- or late April till fledglings learn to fly after a hang glider. This is part of a global project, Flight of Hope, to conserve the population of Siberian cranes. One couple has an egg already.

(The TV test pattern says 'Transmission will resume automatically'.)
