First of all the Egrets returned yesterday, saw seven but managed only three together
Not there today, but instead a movement caught my eye
Such a beautiful "silver" pheasant
Not bothered by the cattle passing by, I think on walking out there later I spotted two female further down the field, let's hope they stay safe.
Think I was caught out
I was happy to see this red squirrel, haven't seen one for ages, and it was happily sitting up in the tree safely perusing the area.
Had half an hour or so walking around and trying to see if I could find any dreys, but no so as it was getting darker I made it home before the rain/sleet.
The Egrets returned today, just a couple of them with Titch also appearing
Slightly better shot, I took a photo of white sheet of paper (as suggested in book!!)
Altercation, even the cattle had a look
Pheasants multiplying
Titch called in - literally - he took a wrong door on his way out of shed, I didn't know and had carried on unpacking my shopping. Went in house and into lounge to look at the laptop to check an order, did that, back out to kitchen to start toast for lunch. In Titch flew from lounge or other room, and was in the house for at least another five mins with me. Thought I would try and get a few pics, don't know when I will get the priviledge again inside, he hasn't come in for six months or more.
No Titch, I agree, the weather out there is atrocious :-)
I had opened the window so out he hopped into the Berberis bush just outside
My cheeky chappie!!
Looks as if even the rain stopped for him!!! That could be my Xmas photo to you all.

You're welcome.
Lovely photos again, and a cheeky little chappie is titch, leaving its mates out there in the cold and wet!
I agree, it would make a nice Christmas card picture
