Thank you. <br /><br />We had a female Brambling visiting our garden several times a day until a week ago, and then she was gone. The previous winter we had several visiting regularly, but this year (until this female arrived) visits were extremely sparse. However, I take great pleasure in the knowledge that it's almost certainly because the birds have not had such a hard time of it this last winter.Richard Peglerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05115206853645323899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1087997614866569468.post-18587408943763918882014-03-24T10:08:56.657+00:002014-03-24T10:08:56.657+00:00I too learnt something today about nuthatches than...I too learnt something today about nuthatches thanks Findlay, that Jay looks a bit "snappy".Douglas Mcfarlanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12267360351215643395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1087997614866569468.post-62258834868485586242014-03-24T07:18:33.842+00:002014-03-24T07:18:33.842+00:00Findlay, your blogs get better and better.
