What have you seen

While returning from my afternoon dog walk I saw a pair of Buzzards. They were low and directly over me at one point. Their flight seemed so effortless as they faced the wind and let it lift them over a nearby cops. I was so chuffed as this was only half a mile from my home. 

Only  seen  Three ( 3 )  birds  all  day,  and  that  was 

2  turkeys  &  one  goose,  and they  were  hiding  in  ovens  !!

seriously  hoping  you  have  all  had  a  good  time  this  

far,  with  more  to  come  tomorrow,  weather  permitting  ! 

They are certainly increasing in the North West 😊

We saw a raven this afternoon locally, and 2 dippers on the stream, plus all the usual birds on the garden feeders.

{ Not  Joking  Here  !! }

For  some  reason  the  birds  seem  to  have  taken 

exception  to  the  seeds,  fat  balls  &  slabs  I'm  putting 

out  at  the  moment.  I  Had  to  remove  the  fat 

balls  from  their  feeder,  crush  them  into  seed-sized 

pieces  &  put  them  on  the  ground  feeding  trays,

even  then  it's  taken  a  few  days  for  the  Town Pigeon

Flock  to  clear  them  away.

So  I  think  it's  going  to  be  'Starvation  Rations'  For 

a  week,  to  remind  'em  of  what  they  are  supposed 

to  be  doing  !!

That seems to be the case too here, near Hereford. I put out a fat ball, a feeder 3/4 full of seeds and a prepared 1/2 coconut shell and a seed try on the ground when we arrived on site 2 days ago. Within 30 mins there was a Great Tit investigating the feeder, and since then all we've seen are a couple of Great Tits & a Robin, and very little of the seeds have been eaten. Wonder where they've all gone, as we are close to the edge of a wood?

Sunrise today.

This wag came to join me for a beer.🍺 Will try to identify it later! 😀Still no sign of that blue chaffich!😕
