A Blackbird sang to his mate on a dead tree beside the Long Water.
The Little Owl in the oak near the Albert Memorial was in the same place as yesterday.
A family of Long-Tailed Tits passed through a horse chestnut tree just down the hill.
A Great Crested Grebe sauntered past the island.
One of the Coot chick at the Dell restaurant saw a parent approaching with what it hoped was food. But it turned out to be just another stick for the nest.
Two Mallards dozed on the brink of the waterfall in the Dell. It doesn't seem a restful spot, but many birds seem to like the sensation of water running over their feet.
Another excellent picture from Ahmet Amerkali: a Honeybee visits a purple flower.
The Blackbird singing to his mate is one of the loveliest things I've seen this week.
ReplyDeleteI wish we could see Coots mount a mass attack on an intruding dog. I'd give something for that.
Oddly, I've never seen Coots attacking a dog, or vice versa. Possibly the dogs sense the Coots' innate fury.
