Odds & Sods 2021

It's lovely that you are getting regular visits from the two foxes who both look a good size and healthy; nice to see the interaction and did I see the playful one wagging its tail slightly LOL As for cyril squirrel, they are always such mischievous animals !

A parcel (?) of oystercatchers at low(ish) tide yesterday. The group was larger than this. I hadn't seen such a number together before but that is probably because I wasn't paying attention!

I do like the way waders tend to stand so regimental, and there's always those odd few that have to break the smart military format....

Nice photo.

Some more footage from our nighttime garden....

A fox seems slightly incurious about the hedgehog, which takes immediate defensive action, and goes into a ball.

Spotted on a walk yesterday. Until a few weeks ago, I didn't know there were any in the area. Now that I know what to look for (thanks to people here), I have seen them a few times, although they don't always pose for photos like this one did.

Gorgeous pic. fabulous little bird,one of my favourites.

We were in Northumberland a couple of weeks ago and it seemed like every bush had a Stonechat on it. That was great for us as we do not see them too much around home.
