BIRD NEWS:693

 



The Trumpeter swans were too busy to take notice of us on this trip.



Mrs Silvertag noticed me, but the Bewick's were already fairly occupied.



They were all nibbling or napping....it seemed.



We then came across some preening ducks, and a swimming duck. The greylag geese had young!!



They were polite but wary.....and accompanied by several cuties.



Even at that age, the little ones had personalities.



Alas, much of WWT Arundel was still shut - one aviary due to bird flu precautions, 2-3 due to rebuilding the area. Back home and the excitement comes from a baby robin who was initially seen sitting on the tree outside my bedroom window - where parent robin brought its meals...

  1. There's the baby robin. Do you still put food out on the windowsill for them?

    Those little yellow puffballs are adorable.
