Along with hundreds of other bird watchers, I added one or two of my favourite bird photos that I have taken recently. Today, my photo of a pheasant strutting proudly across my back lawn is the "moment of the moment" on the first page!!
There are some stunning photos there with wonderful captions.
Bird watching can be as simple as having a couple of feeders in your garden to entice them in.
The rewards can be so uplifting.
I never cease to be amazed and delighted by nature in all its aspects. Birds have a special place in my heart, especially the little robins who appear at times when I am need of a special "moment".

PS Just been back on "Moments" page and it has changed.
If you want to see my pic you can put pheasant, garden, robin or water in as a keyword search and they will appear - twiglet.

Just another Sunday

Again, thick fog greeted me when I drew back the curtains.
The grass and trees were coated in thick frost.
Birds were swooping to and fro enjoying the seed and bird cake on my feeder.
My black and white Greater Spotted Woodpeckers stabbed at the peanuts.
Eight Long Tailed Tits squabbled over the sunflower seeds until suddenly the Sparrow Hawk called for a "take-away". He missed, but sat scraping frost from the branch of the tree he chose as a lookout point next door.
The fog lifted and the sun lit up the hills, tempting me out to take a few snaps of the hoar frost sparkling on the hedgerows and the soft misty fields where the sheep were grazing.
Just another Sunday!
