Or more like a feeding frenzy!!
Rain was on and off
A wee tad too much rain!!!
But easier to get a meal
And down the hatch..
And if the storm brewing wasn't enough...Jock showed up!
Don't think he was in the mood for pictures today as he turned his back on me!
And one Last evil look at me before he turned and took of
And that was my busy day with the bird before the gusts of wind and hail arrived around 3ish.
Stay safe everyone as its gonna be a rough couple of days!!!!

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Im somewhere in Gloucestershire rather than up north far south or east. where I am in Gloucestershire the storm is going on at the moment. I didnt get any birds in the garden this afternoon cause of the Storm. the storm gradually picked up a lot and then it started raining so its high wind speeds and rain at the same time and it’s still going now. That doesn’t mean everyone in Gloucestershire is exsearianceing it but I think other people might get hit Gloucestershire too but I think it probably depends on where you are in Gloucestershire if you get hit or not. The photos of the birds are very funny and the Sparrowhawk is aswell I think it’s funny that he kept looking at you and then left after aswell
Lot to learn
We had a feeding frenzy the last couple of days, with feeders being emptied more than twice in a day.
They must be listening in on the weather forecasts!
Joking aside, I'm sure nature must have some means of detecting weather changes, we can often feel a sudden cold wind during a warm or mild spell, which can signify rain on the way and some people can detect barometric pressure changes through their joints, so if we can, and we've become very distanced from nature, then I've no doubt wildlife can, and plants as well.
Stay safe up there.

That's good all is well.
I've heard there is snow on the Campsies, from my friend up that way.
