So instead of starting a new discussion everytime I get new visitors or decent shots of wildlife in the garden I shall just keep adding to this one.
So today it was the Great Spotted Woodpecker, 2 of them chasing each other around the trees
Just managed to catch the 2 of them together
Then it was Woodpecker v Starlings....yes I see yous up there
Move out of my way as am coming up...
I said moooooove...
you were warned...
ah...peace to eat at last..
I Dont mind sharing with the dunnock though, just those pesky starlings I dont like lol
Dunnock, robin and thrush happily hopping about together
Gorgeousredwing still around
Flying without wings.....
I just like the different colours of the trees and sky not all grey for a change!
Mr & Mrs RRB (bad pic but it difficult to get them together)
and up last its a wee lollipop
Think that will do for today as I have probably bored you all long enough lol
(Pardon the Scottish Accent)
More lollipops on the way.....
As for the wood pigeon stand off, that could be a mating ritual. We had a pair that initially seemed like it was a stand off, then, it became, should I say: intimate, but publicly so, on the garden fence!

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I'm probably losing the plot, but hey ho, I'm retired....
gaynorsl said:Sorry Mike - couldn't resist!!!!! and I'm way past retirement and am back in rompers and dummy's now :-)
I've got that bit to come yet, well, apart from the dummy bit.....
I think I've already entered that stage, but Covid is my excuse!
Thanks Stephen. Yes it's a feral. They all are in the last post..even the fighting ones
Sorry all garden is closed until further notice due to new complaint from the estates maintenance people (who we pay to cut the communal grass areas. (No idea what authority they have other than hee haw) Am getting a bit scunnered of people trying to tell me what I can and cant do in my bought and paid for private garden. Back to the drawing board for now......bigger pond..might get some ducks lol and a few mature trees that shall feed the birds rather than me..Hope to be back with you all soon but its its Ta Ta for Now on this thread x
