That's called leching not bird watching.Who doesn’t like a bit of bird watching?
Good advice there.Wonderful to see that. They don’t have enough insects to feed on in Northern Europe nowadays. I think If I was flapping all the way from South Africa, I’d probably stop at Portugal, too!
Good spot LozOne for you Nibby just found this little one this morning , not too well im afraid but nothing seems to be damaged, what is it a Red billed Kinfisher , most pics show a yellow neckline for a red Billed

You’re lucky it wasn’t a fat pigeon hitting the window. This is my parents’ empty house in March.I had a coal tit hit the window this morning, I went out and thought it was dead but thankfully only stunned , it's wee mate was standing next to it. Lifted it over to the hedge where it recovered, it's mate never left its side, until they both flew off. Back later collecting dog hairs for their nest
Looks very much like a Woodland Kingfisher, with the two-tone billOne for you Nibby just found this little one this morning , not too well im afraid but nothing seems to be damaged, what is it a Red billed Kinfisher , most pics show a yellow neckline for a red Billed

Agreed especially with the grey cap
Don't get me started on pigeons. Lean mean crapping machines. What a mess they create!You’re lucky it wasn’t a fat pigeon hitting the window. This is my parents’ empty house in March.

We did wonder if the pidg was being chased by a sparrowhawk. But it appears to have regained 2 brain cells and flown out again through the gaping hole in the glass. I have put anti bird strike stickers on all the big windows now.That’s hit that hard!!
My mate had a sparrowhawk hit his double glazed back doors, I wonder if it go carried away chasing a pigeon.
