Happy New Week all.
Brenda - It was indeed lovely to see our Eldest settled in their new abode - they have had a difficult time ever since they met, as they met at a friends wedding and after initial attraction, found that they lived at opposite ends of the country! Then they did a lot of travelling before moving in together. Now they have a nice home where they can settle together at last, and raise their family. We are so pleased for them.
Ospreys Rule OK, but Goldfinches come a close second!
Also plenty of the Red Kites around - this one flew right over our heads.
Lovely study of the red kite, OG. And of course, great pics of the ospreys!!! :-))
Love the photos, OG! I'm so glad you had a great time.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Glad you enjoyed your Osprey afternoon OG, lovely pictures!
Hi all and thanks Annette for starting us off.
Been a glorious day here too.
OG - super photo's of your visit and glad you enjoyed it. Great one of the red kite.
Rita - hope you are all fixed up now, but yes, waiting for a bill for that amount of work!!!! do hope its not too horendous.
OH has a busy week whilst I stay at home but that's how it goes.

RSPB Giving Nature a Home
Evening all: Long, long day working in the garden, but got lots done. Some plants are looking a bit stressed what with the decreased water so will send whatever rinse water their way.
Margo: Saw the news about the nurse on the BBC website. :-( Hope you're doing okay.
Lindybird: Sounds like your Eldest and fiancee made a good choice with the new home - how far is it from you? Interesting your camellias are blooming now; ours flower between November and February.
Brenda: Also saw the news about the car rally; my sister and B-in-Law used to do a lot of rally driving in their pre-kiddie days. That road looked awfully narrow so not much room for spectators.
Rita: Bummer about the car; sorry you missed the plant sale, did the Auto folks give you a ride home? Hope it won't cost too much to fix it.
OG: We had an osprey down by the waterfront the other day; someone managed to get a shot of it. The only ones I've seen here were at Lake Cachuma.
Hi Lynette!
ISS is passing over this week, must pop outside and take a look later. Have a good Monday everyone.
Good morning, all! What a good week we had in our garden last week - after not seeing them for a while we have had visits from goldfinch, long-tailed tits and a beautiful female great spotted woodpecker! I'm very happy.
