The garden is full of insects that attract the bats as well. We have several species that nest every year, blue tits in the boxes, blackbirds, wrens & robins in the hedges and doves, magpies and pigeons in the trees. Sounds perfect. I am inclined not to do so as well, but I am afraid if I didn't feed them the wife wouldn't feed me.  I am happy to prepare my own meals ...but she won't let me in HER kitchen.

In the few weeks we were all in total lockdown, many birds have started nesting within feet of the paths....including a Bittern! They don't want to risk scaring them off before the young fledge. I suspect the wardens and friends are getting some good photographs. â˜¹ï¸ I hope things open up as we are due to come down to Norfolk in July if we can. Just watching what is being said.

For some reason, this Song Thrush which has been shyly keeping to the bottom hedge in the garden, today decided to forage in the open. It came very close considering we were sat outside and not trying to hide out of sight. I suspect it's because it's feeding young, as I then threw out some bread and it grabbed several mouthfuls before flying back to the bottom hedge. Will have to keep an eye out for it's fledglings. 🤞  Click here to comment on this image.  Click here to comment on this image.

Super inages, long time since I have seen one. Hope to get some new pixs out in local wood on Friday.

"My" Magpie has been foraging bits of bread from somewhere - it brings them to our bird bath and dunks them!
