Yup they just keep coming!

I have more Nature notes from the garden for you today. I do so enjoy telling people about the antics of my friends, and it is great that mummy now has photos so that she can see too. Mummy had to work at the weekend so I didn't get to see her much - and she is now working through until Friday, but then she is off Friday afternoon. She has spent the evening with me, but only after she played wit the tarantulas - how rude is that? I am far more important as I actually want her to spend time with me. She tried to say it was just to feed them, but I am not sure it should take that long if that is the case!

There are not many photos from the 6th (which was Gav Gavs birthday and mummy and Gav went out to Bristol Zoo for the day). The magpie was the early morning visitor, as it often is.
 The crows then spent lots of time playing with the peanut feeder, and we caught some good action pictures! The wagtail did visit but I didn't relly notice it much due to the crows making such a racket.



On the morning of the 7th we had a cat in the garden!!! We never get cats in our garden due to the Doris, but this is definitely a cat. It did not leave any presents, nor has it been back since that we have noticed. Rther strange really.

 The crows were really interested in the way mummy had laid these paving slabs out. The worms were congregating under them due to the heat from the sun (not that you could feel any heat when yo were outside mind you), and the crows were having great fun trying to get to them.



Unfortunately there are not many photos agin as our neighbour was doing some work in his garden, and with the dog and the noise I don't think the corvids felt it was suitable for playing in our garden.
I have given you a selection of photos from the birds making the best use of the peanut feeder haha.










Some lovely arial shots for you all!

Bye now,

Chucky!

Spider drops

Ooh hello everybody, Have you come here from mummy's blog? To find out about this picture It is a pretty poor picture as the camera refused to focus on the tiny little spider. So GavGav got interested in spiders over a year ago now. He still has a slight phobis of them, but his way of overcoming it is to find out more aboout them, and the fear transforms into interest instead. It seems to be working as he likes to go out with his sonic toothbrush, making the spiders lunge out to try and grab it, and he has also got himself two taratulas. Hmm it would appear that we do not have any photos of them yet, so I shall have to get some to show you! Anyway, this interest means that they are more likely to notice spiders doing funny, or unusual things - although mummy has always been quite good at paying attention to any animal of any shape or size. Last summer she nearly planted an extra large garden spider. She dug the hole, upended the plant out of its pot, and the spider fell into...

Let's finish up May

Starting off with a couple of videos of the Blue tits before the babies fledged. They were in and out constantly!! Then we had Mr greedy crow, showing off to the camera about how many suet balls he can fit into his beak at once haha. This Magpie was finding something very tasty - we are pretty certain it was the live mealworms mummy put out and not a baby blue tit though. This little madam was winding the Blue Tits up - luckily the baby's were at the fledging stage before she found the nest! Some pictures of the pairs coming into the garden. Then the wagtails started bringing the babies in :) Flopped Doris! Just thought this was a great picture. And some baby pictures, as well as the blackbirds and hedgehogs. Right bedtime xxx

Introducing Myself

Image
Hi there, My mummy has finally decided to write a blog for me - so I can tell you all about the Nature we see around here. First I would like to introduce myself. I am a Sulphur Crested Cockatoo, with some mino behavioural problems. My mummy got me from a pet shop when my previous owner died, and the remaining family were unable to look after me. This was about 8 years ago now! My mummy thinks that I may have had some trouble with the families younger children as my wings were very severely clipped (so that it took 3 years for them to grow back correctly) and I panic if ever I have to sit on somebodies arm, or shoulder, or pretty much anywhere (except maybe their knee if they are petting my head - for a brief time). I have some noisy little parakeets that share a room with me. They are in two cages of pairs, and they are loud when they get started (although GavGav tells me I am much louder and more annoying - I am not sure I actually believe him). I am not allowed to be in the sa...
