Rook,
Corvus frugilegus
One of my Rooks, looking down, after having eaten its fill (in other words: quite a lot!) gave me one last glance before heading off again to its friends at the other side of the fence.
As did this one.

Jackdaw,
Corvus monedula
checking out what could be hidden among the grit on the road. This bit of road is frequented by kids which use it as a shortcut between the village shop and their homes.
Blue Tit,
Parus caeruleus
Blue Tit on the edge of my Fatsia 'birdtable'
Pied Wagtail,
Motacilla alba
Wagtails are regulars in the garden as well. Bossy, and very noisy they are too.

Robin,
Erithacus rubecula
Another bossy visitor.
Next week I'm hoping to go to Killarney with the gys at respite. It is the worst I can do to my back, which hardly survives 1 trip to Bantry every
fortnight! My hope is that we get to see any of the Sea Eagles there of course.
I found your web site when looking up resources for disabled birders. I do have mobility issues due to multiple sclerosis and do my birding in my yard because of it... You have wonderful photos and information here.....Michelle
ReplyDeleteI just love the Rooks. We don't have them here. They look like little clowns.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Xrow! Rooks are clowns sometimes.
ReplyDeleteThey'd be similar in size to the crows in your garden in Canada.
