					<title>Red Kites</title>
					<link>http://nisbet.fotopic.net/c1187292.html</link>
					<description>Normally the best views of the kites are around Barlow Fell, but for the first time we got cracking views of them over Gibside. At one point we counted 5 of them over the field with sheep (alongside the oak avenue), where they really stood out against the green grass. Probably hanging around for a &lt;A HREF=&quot;http://www.gigrin.co.uk/w/captured_by_kites.html&quot;&gt;snack&lt;/A&gt; in no small part thanks to Mr Butty. </description>

					<title>Blue Tits visiting their nestbox in a Durham garden</title>
					<link>http://nisbet.fotopic.net/c968050.html</link>
					<description>I have no idea what's going on here. A pair of blue-tits coming and going to a recently placed nestbox. One of the birds looks very odd. Perhaps in moult. A Bald Blue-Tit? A couple of messages on the &lt;A HREF=&quot;http://forum.biggonline.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=18746&amp;highlight=bald#18746&quot;&gt;Bigg Bird Forum&lt;/A&gt; suggests this happens to some adults towards the end of the breeding season. And on Springwatch it was said that the adults often get bald from the constant entering and leaving of the nest box and rubbing their feathers on the entrance hole.

The blue tit family left the nest on Friday 9th June 2006. The last photographs I got were of the adults the day before.</description>

					<title>Crawford the bizarre earless white cat</title>
					<link>http://nisbet.fotopic.net/c933595.html</link>
					<description>Crawford came to live with us in St Annes in December 2002 after spending some time with Cats Protection. They were very nice to him and that's where he got his name. Before that, well, that's a bit of a mystery, and the story of how he became a stray always intrigued us.

His ears had been removed professionally. A lot of expensive surgery had been performed. White cats are prone to skin cancer and we think it's unlikely he was tufted out on the street or abandoned. He did have a bit of a wanderlust and a strange fascination with Irwell Street. 

He developed a tumour and had a short but exciting life with us. Phone calls from the public were not uncommon. They'd find him in the street looking pathetic and dejected not realising that this was his favourite ploy. We even had a surprise visit from the RSPCA who'd had an anonymous tip-off. We'd have to be pretty thick to mistreat a cat then print his name and phone number on his id tag.

We never did work out his age. He may have been quite a young cat and was just unlucky. He was pretty perky when he joined us and it was his tumour that got him  in the end. 

He's still around though. As a &lt;A HREF=&quot;http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=118891&quot;&gt;geocaching travel bug&lt;/A&gt; he's padding across the land.

					<title>Garden Birds in Lytham St Annes</title>
					<link>http://nisbet.fotopic.net/c919744.html</link>
					<description>Birds seen in the garden of our house in Lytham St Annes. Mallards were regular visitors to the pond and the three cats had mixed views about this, but generally kept their distance.

The blue tit and great tit were ringed and I often wondered where this had been done.</description>

					<title>Sparrowhawk kills a Starling</title>
					<link>http://nisbet.fotopic.net/c919717.html</link>
					<description>A Sparrowhawk killing a starling in our garden in Lytham St Annes. There's quite a bit of reflection as the photos were taken through double glazed windows. The sparrowhawk &lt;I&gt;mantling&lt;/I&gt; is noticeable in several of the images.

Around IMG_1214 I changed the white balance on the camera (Canon S1 IS) from daylight to cloudy.</description>

					<title>The Three Towers, White Hill, Forest of Bowland</title>
					<link>http://nisbet.fotopic.net/c919316.html</link>
					<description>These photos were taken on a hike to &lt;A HREF=&quot;http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=3bf556b7-7822-4f50-acab-e5e8591b5a99&quot;&gt;The Three Towers&lt;/A&gt; &lt;A HREF=&quot;http://www.geocaching.com&quot;&gt;geocache&lt;/A&gt; in the &lt;A href=&quot;http://www.forestofbowland.com&quot;&gt;Forest of Bowland&lt;/a&gt;.

I'm not sure on my identification of the beastie. I spent some time leafing through my Collins wildlife book and I'm not sure I came to the correct conclusion, so please feel free to leave a comment to correct or agree with me.

And what are The Three Towers all about? Does anyone know?
