TOUGH GOING OUT THERE.



The visitors to the back garden feeders has dropped further especially when the weather is good but did have one good showing when a Bullfinch made a short visit one morning. Otherwise it was slim pickings.

There was one huge disappointment yesterday. It was late afternoon and I was reading Liddle Hart's " History of World War 2 " ( Thanks lockdown)in the conservatory when I glanced into the back garden to see a male Sparrowhawk perched on top of the bird table. My camera was a few feet away. Could I reach it and get a shot ? No it flew off as soon as I made a move. Not seen one in the garden for a couple of years now.










Another walk round the local churchyard was rewarded with some more shots of the Goldcrests but no other birds.
