Psilos allotment birds

 

March 16th 2008 - "One week"
 
Have been busy working on my allotment and really havent had much time for birding. The top plot where my wild flower meadow is to be is now finished, levelled and ready for sowing which I will do in the next two weeks. I have kept an eye open though but birds seem thin on the ground with no sign of the Nuthatches at all. So here are a collection of photos taken over the last week when I have had a moment.
 
 
 
 
The Coal tits are by far the commonest bird at my feeders. There is a pair of them and they work very hard taking food and hiding it. When there is nothing else to see you can bet they will be there.

The few birds that have been around have been very bold and because I work near to the feeding station have become quite tame. The Dunnoks here never skulk in the undergrowth but come right out and seem totally unphased by my presence.

The robins have now paired up as they are much more tolerant of each other. I have been trying to photograph one singing but so far all I have managed is a poor shot in poor light.

When all else fails point your camera at the nearest Grey Squirrel as there are certainly plenty of those around....
