        Two great shots Tony, fascinating birds to watch when they are nest building. I once spent a day in Kenya filming a pair. You an get a 20 or 30 nest in one tree.

            Thanks all, no Roy, it is the birds in question, but they were shots of them building the nests, I will try to find one that is half reasonable ( though the ones i have are not that good ) and post it. They had removed the nests probably as the chicks are reared indoors.

                  Thanks guys.
                  This is the one for Roy, to let him see what had gone, it's not that good, it was raining, it was miserable light, I was just in a shirt, the depth of field is too shallow, the OOF branch is in the way and it wouldn't turn around sighhhhhh.
