Note thin and pointed bill, unlike a house or tree sparrow:

But good picture.

 

We saw a robin flying in and out of our hedge today . Looks like nesting season has started.

Not surprised - its a bit small for a heron

Go on be truthful - you took the photos in your back garden, I recognise the fencing around the paddock. I have to say for model deer they are exceptionally realistic

Muntjac deer in the Watford Electricity Transmission Station grounds

 

A muntjac!?!? It must have escaped from a zoo.

 

Muntjac Deer | The Wildlife Trusts
The small, Chinese Muntjac Deer was introduced to Woburn Park in Bedfordshire at the start of the 20th century and rapidly spread into the surrounding area. It is now a common animal across South East England and can be found in woodland, parkland and even gardens. Muntjac Deer are notorious browsers, eating the shoots from shrubs, as well as woodland herbs and Brambles. Male Muntjacs have short, unbranched antlers that slope backwards, and a pair of long canine teeth. They breed all year-round, but females usually only have one kid at a time. Muntjac Deer are also known as 'Barking Deer' because of their dog-like calls.

Muntjac deer

 

Chris they run free in the UK
even in the suburbs of London

 

Of course they do!

Even in Canada, some non-native species can be seen periodically.

 

They are back in Holland - beavers

 

Not a beaver, just a Dutch kid without a dental plan.

 

A pair of red squirrels, they are a bit different phases in changing their coats from winter to summer coat.

 

Call Fenton!

 

Caught this carp earlier today. I'm told it's a AF species.

Salt and vinegar won't help the flavour of that behemoth.

 

It's an April- Fools fake photo, hence (AF)
Liz can be a dab hand with her camera. Biggest carp I have ever caught was 25lbs.

Yes, I had already spotted the Photoshopped artefacts.
