Have you ever seen more birds fly in front of a camera than yesterday?

My main Blades related memries of birds are the Red Kites at Wycombe away and the streaker against Villa at home.

I've seen a bird of prey, very high up over Nether edge the last couple of years, I wonder if this is them.

Thanks for the image, I had no Idea they were here.

I'm addicted to them. They are currently sitting on four eggs. It could well be one of them high above Nether Edge as according to the Blog they possibly travel as far as Redmires for their prey.

They are fascinating birds. The current incumbent male isn't the father of the eggs, but he is still doing his regular incubation shifts and bringing in food.

The original pair were called George and Mildred I've not seen a name mentioned for the new male, maybe we should suggest Blade as a name...

200 mph. is some speed for a bird.

Sounds like a typical human family set up in large swathes of the UK today

I named the last male Sharpy, but then I was late to all this. The current female is referred to as Mrs P, but as she was Sharpy's girlfriend I call her Sharpella. The new bloke I have called Gapey because of his "distinctive yellow gape" - irregardless of what others may call them, to me they will always be Sharpella and Gapey!

I named the last male Sharpy,

named after me!
