Odds & Sods 2021

A Bullie in the garden, you're a very lucky lady you know, and I'm not at all jealous!!!!!!!

Valley kestrel this morning.

Posted them the last 2 years so great to see they are back to nest in the same place for the third... hopefully get to watch it again until the chicks fledge.

Wonderful footage Bob, will be great to follow progress again this year, no nest in my quarry again this year, eight years now!

Lovely footage Bob.

New garden tick. Grey Heron in the pond this morning. :-)

Do you have a pond?

Yes, I put the pond in around 7 years ago.

We don’t have fish in it but I suspect the Heron was looking for Frogs. He was having a good look in all the wee holes and cracks in the sides that I left for Frogs or Toads. We had found a big pile of what looked like regurgitated stuff around two or three months ago which we suspected may have been the work of a Heron.

Yesterday’s sighting seems to have confirmed our suspicions. :-)

Odd one!
I had to go and read my daughters gas meter last night (she lives in a ground floor flat and meter is out the back) Only cos I am her landlord and I don't trust her enough to do it herself lol...anyways it was about 8.30 pm and I put the key in and turned it, opened the door and whoosh a wee bird flew right at me and hit me on the side the face...I felt terrible upsetting the poor wee thing but thankfully there was no nest inside so guess it was just roosting in there.....its amazing where wee birds can fit into!!!

A few local ones this morning.... yet more peak deer.

You get some funny looking deer up there Bob Lovely shots as always, thanks
