As
always, without the silver eye, I do not think it is a jackdaw - but
as usual, I could not tell if it is a rook, raven, crow, or some
other 'big black bird' that I saw at Lancing. Whatever it was,
another one was hanging out at the picnic tables...
Before
continuing with the tale of my latest excursion, I will tell you
about an incident that occurred this morning - the morning that I am
writing this post rather than posting it.
Early
September had arrived and I was in the kitchen pottering about with a
coffee when a fluttering occurred. A young blackbird flew in the
front door - which I had open at the time for fresh air - and flew
about the kitchen trying to get thru the window. Naturally I ensured
it got out, after its panic and failed attempts - by catching it and
holding it and putting it to the open window. I then had a mess of
black bird poop to clean up... I guess birds get shit-scared too!
Back
to the Lancing portion of my recent trip and here is a familiar face
to regular readers - Bluey! And another one - Naboo!
I think that's the first time that a bird has come into your house in England. It's too bad he got scared once he was inside.
ReplyDeleteI dont think it realized it was going indoors til it got there. if it was one of the older birds, it might have been more cautious and looked inside then walked/hopped inside as the magpies/pigeons first did, but....this one flew right on in and then went 'oooopps!'
