It has been the Big Birdwatch weekend where we record all the birds we see in our garden in one hour. We had our usual visitors – Blackbirds, Goldfinches, Great Tits, Blue Tits, Robins, Jackdaws, Seagulls and Magpies but none of our specials – no Long-tail Tits (my favourites) no Woodpecker and no Buzzards.
Our Fledgling sculpture often has a bird on its upturned beak but not today, just a Chaffinch in the long grass.
Our Snowdrops are beginning to look beautiful!
