  1. Yes mate. The ground is 2 miles from our house so a good walk/bike ride all round Carrington moss and very quiet.
  2. Ah ok. These ones are next to MUFC training complex so i thought that might be a connection . This is my small patch of garden on the front drive with the white ones
  3. From todays bike ride. Bridge & tree reflections on the canal, and some pink bells. Anyone know how these came about? I have some white ones in the garden but not seen the pink ones before.
  4. Yes mate, a 10 minute walk from our house
  5. A couple from yesterday's river walk and a new family of 6 ducklings to add to the family of 11 oñ another sunny day
  6. Swans by the canal on yesterday's exercise
  7. If you've not seen this site yet your missing out. I watched the third chick hatch last week and they're growing quickly. Some great live cams out there https://explore.org/livecams/raptor-resource-project/decorah-eagles
  8. Turned into a great thread this. First went to the Ritz in the late 70's early 80's, northern/funk dayers. The northern niters of the 90's, the warm ups at the Temple of Convenience, The Attic at the Thirsty Scholar pub. The Motown niter, rarest of the rare. Massive place with that sticky carpet that was still sticky at the early 2000 revival dayers. The que to get in then went all the way up whitworth street. Who could ever forget the bouncing floor and the underground Warren Good times A picture of our crowd on the balcony at one of the niters
  9. Had some great times at the Ritz and not all soul related This may give an insight to the place plus there's a good video of the Manchester club scene including the Ritz. https://www.manchestersfinest.com/uncategorized/building-secrets-ritz/
  10. The only decent photos I have of the Cuckoo. The first two are from the hills above Capel Curig, Wales 2013 and the third is from the Isle of Mull 2019. A lot easier to hear than to spot and a lot harder to get on a small compact camera at full zoom. One sound I'll miss this while camping and hiking this springtime.
  11. Quite apt for what's happening at the moment, don't you think
  12. Chinook just flew over, nearly fell off me ladder
  13. Brilliant I'll dig mine out later
  14. Cheers mate. It's at this time of the year that the cuckoo's start to appear and echo all round the valleys. A great sound around the empty hills but only managed to photo a couple. Last year on Mull there must of been a dozen making a right old racket, a fantastic sound even if you don't spot them
  15. A photo from last year, 21st June the longest day, of the infamous Crib Goch on Snowdon. Missing the mountains at the moment. If you haven't seen it, this is a great live view of Snowdon from the Plas y Brenin mountain centre https://www.pyb.co.uk/live-feeds/
  16. See a few fishing it but more towards oldfield brow, near the old Bay Malton, and up through Dunham to Lymm.
  17. A few from along the Bridgewater canal in Sale today. A local walk/bike ride I do quite often
  18. Flew over our house 3 times today and didn't manage a photo. Apparently it was practising landing and take off as it's very quiet at the moment at the airport. It's also been on training exercise at Southend and Luton these past few days according to Google
  19. We were on the train, 3 weeks last Friday just before they started locking down, when I spotted it out of the window past delamere. To say I was surprised, I had a few strange looks
  20. Great spot. like most folk, it's Wales i see them most but I spotted them in Yorkshire and most recently near Chester. Maybe with less traffic, air and road, they and others will be on the march I did see 5 buzzards circling altogether over the fields in this part of South Manchester yesterday
  21. "Bury" is good as well
  22. OK not photos but my daughter has just sent me this link to some great live webcams if it's allowed here. Loads of nature stuff https://explore.org/livecams/currently-live/decorah-eagles
  23. Quite a gathering. We used to have a lot round here but now it's cats, squirrels and pigeons. Squirrels have been nesting for a number of years and it's good watching the little ones but as for most birds it's a no no now. Quite a few years ago we did have about 20 waxwings in the tree for 5 minutes. 6 miles from Manchester
  24. Enjoyed listening in for a few hours, good stuff to all involved
  25. Looks a good app that, mate. I have the sky map app but doesn't show the pictures like yours, just as dots with their name
