    Default Two visitors today.....

    The first time the Great Spotted Woodpecker called was at the weekend. Now he is becoming a regular!

    Unfortunately, Sparrowhawks have been regulars all the time, but this young female is (luckily for the birds) still a 'learner'!

    Thanks, Rolf - but I don't like that Sparrowhawk at all!

    I WAS happy with the pic though - until I noticed the bluish glare from the double glazing on its tail feathers.

    (Thought the sunflower hearts feeder looked dirty when I saw the pic at first, so took it in to clean it after seeing the pic - to find it was only dirty with splashes on the outside! )
