Re: Wildlife in Ed D's Garden.
Had a nice visitor in the garden today. Manage to snap one of a pair of Red-legged Partridges walking about on the driveway.
Photo taken through a double-glazed window.

When I were a lad we always called them "French Partridges" but we never saw them anywhere near the houses.

Great to see in the garden Ed and to get the photo. I have seen a few while driving this year, no photo yet...

Re: Wildlife in Ed D's Garden.
Following on from finding Red Legged Partridges in the garden, today we had a visit from a pair of Grey Partridges. Only managed to get one on a photo.

Looking forward to the end of May. I can get my lawn cut.
