Good morning folks
Sunny and warm feeling ......going to be a good'un today

 

[alp]

You've pinched my sun again, @Verdun ! We have rain now, audible rain and it's nice as yesterday was quite hot and sunny. Hot as in 21c.. Great, time to get some water back into the emptied butts.

I have named two of them, Scruffy and Fussy. Scruffy's feathers are always ruffled up and Fussy has to pick through all the seeds on my hand, selecting the two best ones to fly away with. I don't call them by name I just whistle when I get close on my bike and they follow me to where ever I stop for them.

Sounds like you're one of the more important birds! Haha!

I don't have to worry about the water butts anymore. Only about not being able to do any Gardening because of the rain.

Will get warm today.
A couple of Blue Jays in my yard this morning.

Good heavens! Just when I thought nothing's going on - out come blue jays! I must create a bench like this.

They are so beautiful. Lovely crest and distinctive markings. You're blessed with wildlife, @johnny canoe !

 

[alp]

Lovely video and I don't think I have heard a blue jay sing!

 

[Logan]

@johnny canoe never seen bluejays before, beautiful.

@Logan Have you watched that video. They are so beautiful and they sing in a very funny way. It's the first time I have ever heard of this bird.

Morning all.

 

[alp]

Good morning. Quite a few windows have been opened because of the smell of the paint. So it's a bit chilly. A nice day for gardening.

@alp that smell can last for ages. Was a bit misty this morning.
