| | | Re: birds right by my car Isn't that often the way though? On a trip to Orkney a couple of years ago, I spent hours looking for hen harriers on one of the RSPB reserves and was rewarded by good views of a female across the valley. Back in the car park, just about to set off, a beautiful male drifted by just a few feet away!
