Refreshing
regular readers' minds, I took multiple wildfowl shots on a recent
trip to Arundel when attending a Christmas celebration in town. The
birds were of more interest than Christmas to me, as I am sure you
can tell my the abundance of pictures.
Next
along the moat walk I spotted a coot and a moorhen hanging out
together, chewing grass. There were some ducks behind them too,
swimming about in the moat.
A
brief flash back to the yard at home - winter is now in situ and
although we have only had 2-3 very cold days and one severe frost as yet, it is cold
enough for the birds to once again start to recall that catching my
attention means food might be given to them.
I
have noticed that Curio and Mr Black are instantly in situ whenever I
open the bedroom window - they must have learned to listen out for the sound
of that window opening!!
Birds are smart. I'm surprised they don't knock when they're hungry. :D
ReplyDeleteThat little moat is so great. So many different kinds of birds flocking around together.
Yes, its a lovely place, Arundel - not much there unless you like birds, walking, antiques, chruches, etc - but if you like walking, birds, olde worlde villages, etc, then its nice for a trip.
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely a place I would like.
