WHAT'S BUZZING OR FLYING NEAR YOU TODAY - 2017

Trouble is that around here if someone starts to talk about something things happen, ie, someone had a walk through some woods (on footpath, old) and it was a good year for Orchids, the person started talking about them to other people, the owner found out and told the person to mind they're own _ _ _ _ _ _ business, next the Orchids were gone, Thats why i keep things on the QT

 

Thank you Shiney,

Had one for 20 years, now they've gone it's nice and quite just a few other idiots about who couldn't care a toss but are getting sorted slowly

How can i refuse an invite like that
But i would have to ask OH if she wants to move back home

 

Nice to see a small flock of Long Tailed Tits come through the back garden again, although very briefly, with an even briefer appearance of yet another Chiffchaff.

 

Surprisingly in our garden nothing but the odd pigeon, where have they all gone

 

Lots of goldfinches this morning

 

Gorgeous pics again folks for sharing

 

Popped out into the garden to take some rubbish out and spotted this ...



Then, the dance began, first on the yellow dahlia ...



Then fluttered onto the pink



Drank deeply



Then fluttered off to the rose



What a merry dance he led me!

 

Brent Geese are coming in now from the Arctic, should be a few hundred here in Studland Bay by December.

 

Aww, sea pigeons

 

Through the window today. It's many years since I've been able to have a bird table and lovely to see the birds that are starting to visit. Members of the Tit family and Chaffinches are around too.

 

Look what crashed into my window! How beautiful to have the ghost of an owl imprinted like art. I will never wash it off.
