BIRD NEWS:709





There were mostly pigeons at Swanbourne Lake shore - but the odd other bird.



We then proceeded to walk past the moat towards Arundel, making our way homeward. A group of mallard-distortions hung out the path and one took a fancy to Liz's shoe. in fact, it nipped it twice, then stood right next to it....



There were 5 of this weird colored mallard in total - all hanging out in the 'weirdo' group. Back home, and there were young sparrows, starlings and more amassing upon the birdfeeder pole.



The baby sparrows were so cute...



I ended up taking a video - HERE.




Next, I caught a family of baby blue tits feeding....



Our next excursion took Liz and I to Itchenor, where we strolled along the coastline to West Witterings, around he island, and back - starting with coffee in Itchenor and including a picnic lunch on WW beach. We saw a few posters mentioning a petition to sign....

  1. Attacked by a Canadian goose and a weird mallard-- Liz must have been wearing the wrong perfume or something. 😀
