More Feb pictures

Ooops - mummy went away to Tenerife for a hliday and left me at home - however she locked her laptop away so I couldn't play and add more pictures from the garden from February - so I am going to try and get a few added now!

 The crows really like the bird feeder - that is supposed to be for the little birds (robins, tits etc).


Great in flight shot!

Lovely capture of the handsome male.



This is a funny sequence. Doris has a habit of eating the fat balls even though she knows they are not for her. Well this Magpie often comes down and harrasses her (and she it) and this time the magpie was rather upset that Doris was eating the fat ball and it could not get to have any. So after looking around a bit the magpie goes behind Doris and pecks her on the bum - making her scarper (photo of Doris' bum). Then the magpie decides it doesn't actually want the fat ball, it just didn't want Doris to have it. So Doris chooses to get her own back and comes charging over to the Magpie, in turn making it jump and run to the top of her fence lol. Such fun to watch (although I have to sit really high coz mum has put a big mound of earth in my way now!).

More will follow tomorrow :) Bed time now.

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

Moving into those April showers

Image
We are nearly at the end of the March pictures and moving into the rather soggy end of March, beginning of April lol. It has dried up a little bit again now though. The crows love trying to get the suet feeder down off the feeding station - although it is a little more difficult with the top from the other bird feeder in there also haha. We got our first hedgehog into the garden at the end of March too!! And on April fools day this crow was having great fun with the fat ball hahaha Mummy also wanted to get some pictures of the Magpies eating at the peanut flutter butter feeder - and there are some great pics. And we caught the blue tits on camera!! Mummy got very excited when she saw this! Well anyway I need to head to bed and let mummy get the latest photo's off the camera! Bye-bye!

Spider drops

Image
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
