Out with Bunty tonight and I came across this Mistle Thrush behaving furtively in the scrub. I watched for a minute and it flew to its nest nearby that had large young. I didn't go too close as they were just the right age to explode the nest before their time...



This Crossbill and its mate were at Thrunton the other week. I thought I would post the picture for Foggy as he is getting bored with brown moths...

Not much else doing today other than a pair of Grey Partridges loitering over our garden wall and a Heron on the village duckpond looking worse for wear. It was trailing 6 feet of seafishing line from its bill. Although it flew off strongly no doubt it will end up getting tangled...
