Pity they don't come this far south. Have loads of rowan berries at the moment.

Two buzzards, above my house this morning. They were playing around. One would buzz the other and it would like upend itself and show its talons. Then a crow decided to mob them, which put the damper on it.

What an exciting sight that must have been, Willpar - the crow was probably jealous and wanted to play too. :laugh: :laugh:

After having zero sightings in the last six months my Wren was in my face all morning. Every time I looked out in the garden there it was and sometimes right by the back door. That'll be it now until April. :rolleyes:
