Mr
Bob regards his options at the feeder pole. I walked to the local
garden center early in July - without my camera - but spotted a half
dozen show pigeons munching in the pick your own fields, a skylark
diving down behind the crops, and at least a dozen swifts bouncing
about in the air on the other side of the path.
It
is now July, and I began the birding month by taking a photo of one
of my friends standing on top of the noisy-neighbor's van. I took a
short wander into the woodland to try to cheer myself up a bit, so
here is a piccie of Goggles on his pond.
Goggles
was not alone. A mallard family were sharing his pond with him on
this occasion. I was alone, so did not stay out long - but took one
more shot of Goggles on my way home.
HERE
is the link to an article about coo-ing and cuckoos.
On
my next short trip I spotted a kestrel - at least, I think it is a kestrel - it was not close enough to tell for sure. Goggles was hiding in the
pondside woodland as I passed him on my way up the lane - and on my
way back home again shortly after.
I like that really tall picture of Goggles in the pond. You should go back to the pick-your-own field with your camera. Sounds like there's a lot of activity there.
ReplyDeletei will be going thru it again in the next week or two as i need to go to the aquatic center on the garden center to inquire about pond liner....
