Hi Bob, A fantastic bird. I've seen a Red-legged patridge the Netherlands once! ( of course that was an escape) Beautifully captured! Warm Greetings, Maria
What an amazing bird to have visit your garden, Bob, and you were there to record it with your camera! It's a sobering fact that Red-legged Partridge are only there because some barbaric people think it's fun to kill them. My breakfast was interrupted again today by the sound of gunfire - I hate it!
Hi Bob, Super st of images of the Red Legged Partridge, such a striking bird unfortunately bred for shooting. We likewise have them in the garden. All the best, John
Lucky, lucky you.
ReplyDeleteOn this dark and smoky morning your photos are a wonderful antidote to despair. Thank you.

Where I live you hardly see Partridges anymore and a red one is certainly not. Really beautiful pictures Bob.
Thanks Helma, and I'm sorry for you have lost the Partridge.
DeleteI also find it very unfortunate that we have almost no Partridges left.
