If you go Sunday make sure you get some pictures of the grid girls especially the Golf one.  :party: :love:

Seems as though Rich is not attending the Hatch on Sunday, some lame excuse about not being able to get petrol....... :stupid:

I will however be going, and I will definitely be on the hunt for the Golf grid girl (when swmbo isn't looking that it!)  :scared:

Should have been on 400mm but for some reason didn't extend the lens far enough.  :stupid:

Fabulous (as always!) bird pics, Rich  :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:

You'd love my garden: Chaffinches, Goldfinches, Greenfinches, Bullfinches occasionally, Robin (of course!), immaculate Blackbirds (regularly bathing), Both types of Woodpecker, Dunnocks, Wren, all the Tits including Longtail occasionally, Thrush, Redwing (seasonally), Starlings, Jackdaw, Magpies, plus immaculate gulls on roof and overhead. Talking of overhead: Buzzards and occasional raid onto my 'Bird Cafe' by a Sparrowhawk. Oooh, I forgot a pair of Collared Doves who come regular as clockwork every day. Sparrows of course.

Thanks Robin. Sounds like you have quite a gathering in your garden. We have only moved in to this property so we are just beginning to try and attract some wildlife.  :happy2:

....Together with my wildlife pond it's another of my serious interests and I keep a pair of binoculars on the kitchen window sill and a cat-apult!

I can give you plenty of tips on how to attract and help safeguard bird life in a garden. Probably best by PM or a new thread if you want rather than hijack this one.  :happy2:
