Floof friday

Following on from my previous post, I thought everyone would appreciate this pigeon, having a little rest in a sunbeam in St James's Park. Rest assured, he was behind a metal fence so that no one could accidentally stand on him, and no one was reaching over to bother him. We watched him rummage around … Continue reading Floof friday →

Floof Friday

Seems this area of my local canal is the bird hang out spot... I believe we've got a heron, some Canadian geese, a magpie (?) and a couple ducks.

I have worked out that not only are they ravenous when it comes to eating all of the bird feed from the many bird feeders dotted around the housing … Continue reading Floof Friday →

Floof Friday

A slightly different type of floof today... I went for a run the other day and spotted this absolutely massive black bird sunning himself on a branch on the other side of the canal to the one I was running along. He was probably the size of a heron (if not a little shorter) and … Continue reading Floof Friday →
