  • Photo: Apex Buzzard

    Buzzard (Buteo buteo) atop a telegraph pole. Dorset, UK. Seen on the approach to the Arne entry road - not on the Reserve itself. Can anyone tell me whether buzzards are considered "apex" predators? I've never seen anything eat one!

  • Photo: Barn Owl Remains

    Severed barn owl beak and feathers (Tyto alba). Dorset, UK. At least that's our best guess. Found near a fenceline in open fields on the Middlebere peninsula across from Arne. A peregrine kill maybe? Would a buzzard take an owl? Possibly the predator tore the beak off as a safety precaution...

  • Photo: Firecrest Fodder

    Firecrest (Regulus ignicapillus) feeding in holly tree. RSPB Arne, Dorset, UK. Unsurprisingly the UK's smallest bird feeds on something infinitesimally smaller still. In close-up it looks like insect larvae of some variety.

  • Photo: Frozen Firecrest

    Firecrest (Regulus ignicapillus) in holly tree. RSPB Arne car park, Dorset, UK. Extraordinary, busy little birds. Only an ultra-slow video sequence would do them justice, but that would also require the world's fastest cameraman.

  • Photo: Secretive Dartford!

    ENTRY FOR PHOTO COMPETITION This bird sat nicely at the top of a Gorse bush on Coombe Heath and I think it shows a dartford warblers typical pose!
