| AUTUMN GARDEN - 30TH SEPTEMBER, 2007 | ||
After a dreadful Summer, the last day of September saw the arrival of a few birds in the garden, back on the feeders. It had been some time since I had seen Long-tailedTit. A small flock, about eight, appeared on the nut feeders and stayed for some time enabling me to take a few pictures. I have fixed up a small hide in the garden and was able to be quite close to them |

| WREN | ||
|
It is unusual, in my garden for a wren to stay long enough for me to take a picture, they usually dart back into the shrubs before I can even look at the camera - this one perched on a plant pot for a few moments close to the hide. I was pleased just to be able to get this one shot . |
|
| HOUSE SPARROW although they are supposed to be in decline, I am fortunate enough to have lots of Sparrows in my garden | ||
|
||
| STARLING - and lots of Starling too .... | ||
|
||
| GREENFINCH - This juvenile has soon learned where to find the nuts!!! | ||
|
||
NUTHATCH - I love seeing Nuthatch in the garden; they are infrequent visitors - but this September afternoon they stayed for about 30 minutes, and being in the hide enabled me to take some close up pictures! |

2008 saw an even worse Summer than in 2007 and to be honest - the Autumn was not brilliant either. Needless to say - the Blackbirds returned in Autumn for the berries. |
