There’s a man I’ve got to know during my wanders around the local country park, Lindsay, who feeds the birds on a (I think) daily basis. But it’s not the small birds – the robins, the tits, the finches – that he feeds; it’s the crows. He walks the same route, and the birds know it, and what time to expect him. These two crows, sitting on fence posts in the light rain, appear to be wondering where he is, scrutinising each passing human to see if it’s him, wondering if he will still come in the rain. Don’t worry, crows, I do believe he will!

Good man! I feed everything that comes to my patch, including today – a male Bullfinch! I am still so excited. He has been in the Amelanchiers most of the day feeding on unripe berries.
Oh, wonderful! They’re such handsome birds, even though they can sound quite mournful. 🙂
I haven’t been out today so have no idea what he sounds like. Hoping for less rain tomorrow…
I am also hoping for less rain …
