Osprey and Swifts.. C/booth 27th Aug 19. 15.45pm

Just been watching 4 Swifts hawking insects over Goodshaw Lane and C/booth, along with c100 other hirundines (inc sand martins) when I picked up an Osprey high up heading south.  It then stalled presumably due to the bad weather to the south of me. It circled a few times then drifted out of site to the east, possibly dropping altitude, before I could get me big lens on. Was photoing the Swifts for record shots when I spotted the Osprey. Got some with the smaller lens though.

Trampoline list keeps on growing..

Pics of Osprey and 1 0f the 4 Swifts. Blown the silhouette on second pic to show white underparts.
