Yard Bird Update 79
November 22nd 2011 17:46
The seasons might be changing at strange times, but change they do. I saw the first of the winter birds today - a blackcap.
In fact, it has been a rather good day for birdwatching out of the window. The tree was filled with blue-tits earlier on, with at least 4 hopping about the branches searching for bugs to munch. They also flew onto the sill to peck at a few bits of suet pellt and meal worm I put out for them and one tapped on the window - perhaps thinking a smudge was a bug!
The robin with the orangey high patch has made its home in our yard, it seems, because I have seen it every day for a couple of weeks now. I have seen many blackbirds, starlings, sparrows, and a few goldfinches, too. I even spotted a hedgehog today, although not a bird, it was interesting to watch.
