    Merganser?

    Aggressive Little Egret (the two had been at peace for some time) and a helicopter flies over:

    26 February

    The Whooper Swans flew off in larger groups than usual this morning, as flagged by MIKE:

    Not much to make an effort over thru the day - here's dusk (and typing that word reminds me that GARDENBIRDER reported a Song Thrush - oh dear, I can't see sound Yum )

     Was 7.09 PM the time you heard it, GB?  I don't have any times but I can try to calculate...

    Can't find it, sorry Confused

  • Sorry, Scylla, have only just seen your note. Please do not worry about not finding the Thrush--save your energy for the Ospreys! But yes, the bird was singing then and for at least for some minutes before I posted. Not certain when it began--someone else had mentioned it on YouTube chat so I turned up the sound. The sound is normally off so as not to disturb Mr GB. I then switched to reading another thread and as a result, I do not know how long the bird went on for. Another person has posted photos on another thread of a Thrush singing in her garden and someone else has asked her to make a video-with-sound of the bird singing. If she does, I will let you know.

    Kind regards, Ann

    Me too, GB, lately I've been closing down without hitting Post, so when I reopen I find an empty RF box sat sitting staring at me and I have to work out what was supposed to be in it Grin

    I had told you last night that I couldn't find the thrush singing... well, I found some singing bits 'n pieces but was too tired to make them into a postable video - as evidenced by the empty RF box, I must have packed up in my sleep.

    27 February - Nothing special to report up to about 08:30, next clip should finish around 14:30.

    Very little from me today - I think because there's been little to report/snap.

    Solo the Swan was on the river, an Egret was very distantly in a tree...

    This black box is unfamiliar to me.  Don't tell me that I pass it every day Grin

  • Scylla, Here is a YouTube clip posted by another poster on the forum, Linda257 -

  • Lovely, thank you !!! Blush

    MC. I have not seen this box before either but Heather mentioned it on Chat, It is another Owl box. Not the one we usually see.
