Into the feeder and grab a nut. |
And then away as quick as possible. |
Coal Tit near the Feeders. Several of these delightful little birds were about during my visit. |
Great Tit, Near Feeders. Again about in reasonable numbers. |
Great Tit and Blue Tit. These birds are waiting to get on the feeders. |
Another bird waiting to dive into the Peanuts, |
On several occasions collisions between birds were only averted at the last second. |
One day I will stay that much later for when Arthur feeds the birds, I think that will be really something. |
I hope we will all still be able to get out and watch our birds because of the problems caused by this Corona virus, fingers crossed we all survive .
Hi John, Eat your heart out, I had a red kite over my house today and not for the first time either,
ReplyDeleteGood luck,
Mike.
Hi Mike,
DeleteA farmer friend gets the odd Red Kite, but farther East we have considerably more.
All the best.
John
Great photos John, and good to see you also managed to capture the Kites. Read that the Ospreys are back home for another season. Is that right?
ReplyDeleteStay healthy,

Hi Roos,
DeleteHad a look on the Osprey project volunteer site and I can see we have some tracked birds heading North through Senegal, but I'm sure we will have some early arriving birds very soon.
All the best,
John
Hi Roos

John
Fabulous John, all the photos of the birds are amazing. Thank you always and take good care of yourselves :)
ReplyDeleteHello again, thanks for visiting me. I have enjoyed looking through your photos again. They always bring a smile. Hope all is well with you and your dear wife right now. Please stay safe and wishing you both good health at this awful time we are all going through. All the best John :)
DeleteHi Denise,
DeleteSo pleased the photos bring a smile in these trying times. Unfortunately things are not that well with us as explained in my next post. Hope you are both well and stay that way.
My love and best wishes ,
John
Hi Denise.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, we are all having to take good care. you keep yourselves fit and well.
all the best

I envy you being able to have that kind of open peanut feeder, John. Here the squirrels would clean in out almost before you could turn your back. I am sure that you are having to deal with this Coronavirus. Stay well, and especially make sure that Veg does not get unduly exposed.
ReplyDeleteHui David,
DeleteThe squirrels had a visit but left after two had a fight and it was just for the birds after that, Yes this Coronavirus is a real worry, I have basically put Veg into isolation. You and Miriam look after yourselves, keep fit and well.
All the best,
John

Great series of pictures John... I love the Blue tit... so cute... Have a great week and take care...
ReplyDeleteHere in Madrid the situation is very dangerous and painful... :-( Oh my God..
Hi Ana
ReplyDeleteThank you, its something so different for me with the smaller birds, very fond of the Blue tits myself.
It is a very dangerous and frightening time, lets hope we all survive. You look after yourself and keep away from people,
All the best
John
Hi John,
ReplyDeleteI hope everything is fine with you and your loved ones.
The world has changed very quickly and we are concerned about how this will turn out.
Fortunately, we can still enjoy nature and its flora and fauna. Your tits are very nice to see and the dunnock is also a lovely picture.
Your photos of the flying red kite is of course completely fantastic. What you saw a lot of these beautiful large birds of prey. I really enjoyed it.
Kind regards, helma
Think carefully about your health and be safe.
Hi Helma,
ReplyDeleteI likewise hope all is well with you and yours. what a different world we are in to a few weeks ago, it is really very frightening, something we are not use to .
You keep safe and be careful as we are doing,
All my best wishes,
John
