Interesting things you see from your garden?

Now Im sure many people live in far more interesting places than me in a Derbyshire village. A few miles away is a private small airfield and a few days a week a 1930s Tiger Moth biplane flys around our village and we get a great view from our garden. Been on about 5 flights so far today and is great to see. Does anybody else have anything random or interesting they can see from their gardens?
 
Live a minute walk from the sea and surrounded by three sides with fields. Get a lot of paragliders going over, especially the ones with the engines on their backs.

Lots of small airplanes I presume doing voucher flights from Teesside. Get the ambulance and coastguard flying over regularly. The ambulance has flown over five minutes ago, hope no one is injured at the beach.
 
I'm lucky enough to have just moved onto a farm with panoramic views of fields and rolling hills. I feel very lucky. Regulars at my garden fence include cows, sheep, rabbits, hares, and owls!
 
Not exactly a garden but my terrace faces the Sagrada Familia one block away. I’d post a picture but not there at the moment, I’m moving at the beginning of September and will miss the view but won’t miss that neighbourhood.
Had a great view in one of my old places, the Mediterranean Sea one way and Tibidabo and the mountains the other way.
 
Lots of these ring nosed parakeets....

I don’t have a garden! From the balcony I can see the London museum of water and steam, a pub and the Brentford community stadium.

I think we have a winner! I love that city. Can’t wait to go back.

The occasional hawk devouring pigeons 👍

A couple of weeks back we had a hawk pinned in a conifer tree by a murder of crows.

At one point it made a break for it but they forced it down into a bush.

After a bit of heavy bombardment it went back to the conifer where it stayed for at least half an hour until the crows had cleared off.
 
Weymouth. Two mins from the beach, always see the jetskiers, and the windsurfers. Also, right now, see the cruise ships.
