Fluffy Bird

Fluffy Bird

There was a drama at the veranda the other day. Bigger photo. The neighbours cat, Tindra that has moved in where I live, managed to catch, kill and eat one of the juvenile birds, a Great tit. She later caught another one, a Blue tit, but with a little help from me that bird survived. Tindra had to spend the next couple of hours indoors. Now life has returned to normal at the veranda.Which means that all the birds, minus one are back.

Feed Me! Feed Me! Feed Me!

Feed Me, Feed Me, Feed Me!

There's often birds at my veranda. My favorite is the woodpecker. And a blue tit that has been in a fight. The different birds often fight for position at the bird feeders. The woodpecker always wins. Over the last few days this juvenile great tit has been flying in with it's mother. It sure can scream if and when the food doesnt arrive on time! Probably best at the original size.
