BIRD NEWS:739

 



We came back to the original lake on our way back again and this time the swan seemed to be hiding to play peek-a-boo.



I got a better shot of the Egyptian geese/ducks, nibbling the grass as they paraded around the sides of their lake. I tried to get a shot of a wagtail too...but failed.



OUCH!! Someone flew into the window and learned the lesson that glass is hard the hard way!



Meanwhile, Pidge landed on the bird bath - a mere puddle to such a large bird though an ocean to a wren or sparrow. Goldfinches still visit the feeders, as well as sparrow, mixed tits, robin, starling, blackbird...



Pidge - one of the youngsters of this year - has become quite tame and clever.




Not only does he realise that food appears on the windowsill when i am around, but that there is a way to produce it if it isnt there waiting. Here we see an is-there moment, while i was on the laptop in my bedroom.



Here we spot bro in the tree watching....



& then there are 2 pigeons on the sill pecking food!
