Thanks toEd O'hara for the following shots from Oxford Island, Co. Armagh today.
A Woodpigeon that thinks it's a duck!
A nice family scene (it is a sunday after all)
...and this hybrid Scaup - a spot prize (one year's NIBA membership) for the person who can identify the parents. Check out that sexy white tail tip!
Check out this series of shots from a recent trip to the Saltee Islands, Co. Wexford, by Allen Gillespie. Some truly stunning up close and personal images of seabirds. Thanks Allen!
