Yard Bird Update 12
November 28th 2010 17:27
Before continuing with the years photographs, I thought I would take a post to update you on what has been going on in our yard lately.
One of the baby wood pigeons has been sitting in the tree around lunchtime lately - maybe waiting for me to put out the birds lunch at 12-30, I thought - but no - he stayed in the tree for at least a half hour before investigating the food source.
The past few days have been frosty and temperatures have been around zero. A robin was ‘ice skating’ on my dad’s pond this lunch hour. It landed, either slid or walked extremely fast along and then hopped a few steps before flying off.
The thrush is back with us for winter - it was a rare visitor during the warmer weather, but I have spotted it several times in just 2-3 days. I am looking forward to seeing the redwings and black caps again shortly….
