Very sadly this did not happen, thus breaking a seven year run of submitting results to the RSPB. Despite loading up the balcony of delight with sunflower seeds and fat balls a week before the BGBW weekend, my feathered friends either did not find them, or thought them too scary to use. The felling last [...] As the weather is so bad and inspired by seeing the joy on Chris Packham’s face during last week’s WinterWatch when he spotted a long tailed duck, I have re-opened the balcony of delight. It’s been many months since I last fed them so the birdies have not yet reacquainted themselves with the copious supplies [...] While enjoying Springwatch last night, I was slightly shocked to hear that less than 2,000 results had been sent into the BTO’s Big Garden Weigh-In survey. This is similar to the ever popular RSPB Big Garden Bird Watch which happens each January but as befits the more scientific approach to bird protection, research and study [...] The seventh year of participating in the BGBW, was tinged with an amount of sorrow and trepidation.

These vermin are regularly accounted as intelligent [...] My low esteem for the bible has been raised temporarily and by a minute fraction, having read this impressive list of birds which god told Moses not to consume in Leviticus Chapter 11. And these ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and [...] Another tern shot from last week, which after some GIMP manipulation, I actually quite like. This dive was successful, from the bird’s point of view at least. |
