    Default Crow in the Tree tops

    Went out for a long walk this afternoon and if it hadn't been for this chap up in the tree top, would actually have come back with no photos whatsoever. Very seldom have I been on a walk and seen less birds.

    No shortage of Wood Pigeons though.

    Having said that, at least I was able to give my new binoculars a good field test.

    Thanks Babs, yes he did, but due to illness I was unable to try it out on the Fieldfare orchard. Hopefully be able to put it into action in the next week or so.
