The Weekend
On Saturday we managed to walk the dogs before the rain came. The rest of the day it tipped.This morning the sun was shining and we had a lovely stroll at Ashley walk.It was a bit windy but once we were in the shelter of the valley it was warm in the sun. The little stream was full and we even found a mini waterfall after yesterdays heavy rain. This afternoon i spent some time watching the birds They come so close and are easy to photograph I hope it doesn't rain tomorrow as they are supposed to come and replace the fence that wa damaged in the storms a couple of weeks ago.
Blogger has been very slow recently and tonight I found I couldn't comment on other blogger blogs. If you read this Jan I thought Frank was adorable.

Nuthatch (Sitta europaea)
Nuthatches are small birds not much bigger than a Great Tit. You can sometimes here them hammering nuts on trees. They can come and go frequently to bird tables because they often collect nuts to store. They nest in holes in trees and they plaster mud around the entrance to deter larger birds from entering. This bird is one of very few will run down as well as up trees, and is the only British bird that habitually does this.Nuthatches seldom wander far from their place of birth.I took these photos today and couldn't decide which one to post..hence the post about Nuthatches!
