One
last shot of the teenage blackbird from July to share, before
continuing with August. The first week of the new month brought a fear
to me, as the council sent someone out about clearing my yard due to
rat scares over the back of us. It sounded as if they were officially
going to order me to raze the lot, or at least too much for my own
comfort.
Thankfully,
when the day and time arrived, a friend turned up to help me through
- as I am not very good when dealing with official people. Also
thankfully, they managed to 'cheerful chatter' the official man out of
the legal shell into humanity, and the result is that 3 tasks need to
be seen to - but the birds should all be safe and well - as well as
the hedgehogs, frogs, bees, butterflies, etc. PHEW!
Onwards
to August pictures now, and here is Magster's youngster sitting in my
tree. Next up, Mr Black is caught on camera during the second week of
the new month.
Well, I'm glad the council guy was sympathetic and that your backyard nature preserve is safe. :)
