A turbo snail

[Flutterby]

Nice buff sightings.

If you hitch a ride on a snail you obviously aren't in too much of a hurry!

[Dewi]

Some nice looking buffs there Okie.

Think I'll look for that snail next time I'm there.

Nice to see the pools of water. That was a big catch for that eagle!

You tell us!

[Lisbeth]

Wow! That is the greenest of green Just found this I have been a bit absent minded lately

A tiny bird with chicks?

[Mel]

I wonder if those hares / rabbits are roadkills or if tawnies are able to catch them themselves...
It certainly looks like a big meal! Very interesting sighting

[Richprins]

A nice quiet road, okie!

Also say a small bird?

Looks like roadkill to me, Mello?


The tawny eagle's diet is largely fresh carrion of all kinds, but it kills small mammals up to the size of a rabbit, reptiles, and birds up to the size of guineafowl.[8] It also steals food from other raptors.
