Another
shot of the city pigeon, before moving on to another info board. This
one details the eider ducks - seen in the past few blog posts both in
still shots and a video. The following photo shows live examples of
male and female eider.
More
eider photos follow, before my latest Arundel excursion ended.
Back
home, and I caught a few fuzzy shots of a blackbird taking a drink on
the bird bath - alas, none of them came out clearly - but they do
look rather interesting, so I decided to share them anyways.
October
reached the middle of the month and before taking another excursion I
spent a couple of days focused on cleaning and cookery. While
cooking, I often looked through the kitchen window and saw a few
comical sights at the feeder pole.
One
such occasion involved a muddled starling, who sat upon the seed
feeder pole but could not bend enough to reach the gap to obtain
seeds. The pole is sited close to the feeding hole, enabling smaller
birds like tits and sparrows easy access - but alas, our poor
starling could not get a thing til he flew to the suet ball feeder
instead!
Your city pigeons are exactly like our city pigeons. That first picture could have been taken in Dorchester. :D
ReplyDeletesame style city pigeons as in Aussie, too!
