a baby Great Spotted woodpecker bein attacked by a magpie:eek:...poor little Woody...b'stard Maggy:mad:
Hares, Ringed Plover and Little Ringed Plover, plus a LBJ (Little Brown Job) of a bird that I still can't recognise despite buying a book.
Wasn't a siskin, was it? :p Only saying that 'cos I heard a prog on R4 about birds and (apparently) it's got one of the ugliest bird songs around. They tend to live in the tops of trees, especially evergreens.
Come to think of it, there's quite a bit of yellow in their plumage so maybe it wasn't then.... :(
Watch the skies! :D
Radio 4?:eek: You must be older than you look Jan:p

Tirade over! How's the leg Matt?
haha is it safe to come out yet? The leg is much better thanks mate,gave the Trunce a miss last night cos was unure but now i wish i'd done it:( Anyway,its gonna be tested this weekend cos im doing the national 3 peaks in aid of the BHF!!!
Cheers, but I'm guessing it wasn't. It made sort of a "peep" which wasn't overly objectionable and wasn't up a tree! Next guess please. I'm going to get my other book out and suss this out.Quote:

Think the first Swift (baby) left the nestbox under the house eaves this morning. Greenfinches & bullfinches are starting on the geranium (wild) seed heads that Missus plants for them. Can do a lot in a very small garden.
Completely forgotten to look for the glow-worms this year, damn I love seeing them on them when out and about at night:(.
