They are genuinely useful birds, keeping down invertebrates that might spoil crops and gardens.Ralph Hancockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11686354797977020917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278510471239667560.post-14496259779014765722017-12-19T23:12:50.324+00:002017-12-19T23:12:50.324+00:00Glad to know that some readers are enjoying the cu...Glad to know that some readers are enjoying the current plethora of owls.Ralph Hancockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11686354797977020917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278510471239667560.post-21971091088157627572017-12-19T22:07:00.368+00:002017-12-19T22:07:00.368+00:00My canary did yawn when he was sleepy and content....My canary did yawn when he was sleepy and content. Can't talk about other birds.<br /><br />Thinking about the Moorhen bonanza today, I've been trying to remember where precisely in Wiltshire did we see an enclosure with communal Moorhens. We stopped in a village en route to Stonehenge and in a cottage area there was a small enclosure with a tiny pond, a handful of Moorhens and a charming sign telling visitors those were communal Moorhens and not to do them any harm. Can't recall where it was (not Cotswold, that's for sure).<br /><br />It cheers me to see that even when temperatures are so low and the weather is so adverse birds do get on with their lives.
