Quiet dry walk

Bridge Support Wall

 Cow Parsley - Anthriscus sylvestris almost in flower

One of my nestboxes - this has no camera in and the Blue Tits are nesting, I may be able to get some photos later as they develope.

An old stump in the Top Lodge, I do believe there is a Moorhen Nesting in there.

Terns are back, only one brave Gull on the Raft.

Percy Wood Pigeon, he's never far away when the food is out.

Take Care & God Bless

Tuesday 29 January

Very mild and the rain is back.

Well what would I do if Percy did not come, I would be worried for him.

 One of the large recycling bins cut in two to make sledges - obviously not a success. 

The other day I put monkey nuts on the bench and they went in minutes, today no takers, they are all waiting for the sunflower hearts.

As you can see all my bird friends are spoiled :)

Monday 28 January

Two days and most of the snow has gone, no doubt we will get more but what weird weather we are having.

Percy Wood Pigeon was the only one that let me take his photo at the cost of some sunflower seeds.
