That would have been extra nice.<br /><br />Just back from Menorca where Booted eagles are ten a penny but never come anywhere near humans. In Europe they are subject to much persecution from hunters and have learnt to keep a long way from people pointing things at them. Lenses or guns they can't distinguish.

He starts hunting about five o'clock in the evening and again early in the morning ahd has cleared my garden of mice and other rodents. When I was a child and lived on the Bluff in Durban, we had lots of White Eyes in our garden but they seem to have disappeared from most areas of Durban, unfortunately for my roses. Great post, Diane.
