This is beyond infuriating! And sadly not surprising because those game keepers will and do kill anything that dares to breathe near the estates unless its pheasants. They are cruel beyond belief and the worst part is they always, always get away wit it!

You are right JS they do, but that's not far off now, and I know I am being enthusiastic

On my walk through the local park today I saw a squirrel gathering something on the ground. I thought she (I know its a she :D ) is digging up a nut previously buried, but than I realised she gathered dry leaves and took a paws full up the nearby tree and to the nest! Someone is making a nest nice a...

Good spot Butterfly. They are in my town centre but rarely come out to see us all in the housing estates.

That's why I was surprised to see it in my garden JS , I always see them only in the town centre and car parks. I just hope its not just one off

Today was the first time ever that I saw a pied wagtail in my garden!! Was there only for a little while, help itself to some suet and left. I hope it comes back again, super cute bird

I've been having a bunch of finches in my garden for quite a while now, chaffinches and gold finches that come every day to help themselves to some food. Lovely lively birds
