Red Kite, I think , have you been as far as Gigrin? or Bwlch Nant Yr Arian?or welsh mountain zoo?

Not so sure about the Red Kite but the other areas are not correct.

In or around the Llandegla Forest or the RSPB’s reserve in Conwy, are a couple of known sites in North Wales where they have relocated. 
 $welsh$

Another good guess but not correct.  Does this photo of the park help?

I am annoyed, I cannot identify the bird, poss. red Buzzard,    how about Pen Y Bryn.   &shake&

Has that bird set up home in a kids play area?

i wooden know about that Steve but it's in an area of outstanding natural beauty.    It wasn't there last time I visited so I can understand Yorkies's grouse about not recognising the area.

You'll have to ask Tim that as I don't know.       ;D        Lovely sculpture though, my friend who knows his birds thought that it was a Buzzard as there are many in the area and a couple followed us around our ****  ******  walk

is it at the Adventure place on Moel  Famau .. but that only has 5 letters   hmmmmmmmmm

The Burgess brothers are very talented ( I prefer Tim's work to Andy's ) so it would probably be one or the others.

What a jammy guess!           &well&


It was the forest car park at Moel Famau but the walk we did was Moel Fenlli   but the extra *  didn't fool you, did it?     $good$

Last time I saw the Grouse by the car park so that was another clue for Yorkie

It wasn't a guess ....  I was trying to find a link between the adventure park and the carvings when you posted the hint about them being wooden,  so I had to get get a shift on coz you'd given the game away.   

There are lots of pages displaying the work of Tim and Andy Burgess... have a Google  :)

Well you fooled me big time, I like birds, especially Raptors, great sculptures ,and by using ... chain saws.

Not the Grouse, looks like something I could do.

When I was looking to identify the bird (RED KITE) I came across this site, wonderful photos and video's

Here is a new one from me.  Where is this vessel moored and if I have a trip where will it take me.
