Baby Robin and friends

This baby likes to survey his patch from this stub. There are another two about, one of which is entering "puberty" as his red breast is starting to show.


I'd dumped a pile of nuts from the feeder so I sould put fresh ones in and it turned into a bit of a war zone between the squirrel, a magpie and some jackdaws. The squirrel decided they were his, but the magpie would run to him and nip his tail.


And what a fab shot of the jay I managed to take. You can really see his lovely colouring.

Birds

The GSW has been around a bit more recently. I even saw him on the bird table and dropped to the floor to crawl to the window and peep over the sill.
He was also chasing other birds off the seeds on the slab. He's a very strange moving bird.


I am getting lots of sparrows down this corner of the garden. Definitely at least 3 male and I'm not sure if some of these are fledglings as well as females

The magpies have been after the fat recently

A bit of a stand-off going on

The jackdaws are so funny trying to pick the seeds up off the flat slabs. Their beaks are too big.

This goldie looks soooooooo fat.
