There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.
Indeed there are Pckts, but they are very illusive and strike suddenly. I'll have a video coming out in the next week featuring an attack from a sparrowhawk on a pair of lapwings. The attack is so quick, but you do get a good wide view of it. Apart from sparrowhawks we have:
Buzzards
Kestrels
Foxes
Weasels
Mink
Ravens (occassionally prey on small birds)
This year we may also see Ospreys and Otters (did last year)
Here is a photo showing the aftermath of some carnage, this may have been the fox:
