Notes From Her Outdoors

I love the great outdoors. There's a lot out there to keep me fascinated.

Throughout 2010 I attempted to blog every new thing I saw as it came into season, wandered past me, or was found hiding in a sneaky niche.

Now I have the task of naming all the life I recorded - life was never sweeter.

This year I'm recording the things that catch my eye. and hopefully, will catch yours too.

Wish me luck, I'm going out!

Winter Wildlife Wednesday 30.11.10


It's been a really great day for wildlife. 

First thing was this Great Spotted Woodpecker - Male (?) on our bird feeder - MeWally's pushed nuts into these trunks (of our Cordylines)!


MeWally grabbed a few shots as it nervously fed.


Later, at the Turn Around House, I saw 2 Roe Deer, no more than 15 feet away from me. I dashed in to snatch up my camera and they, of course, dashed off. Then a couple of JAYS and a NUTHATCH busied themselves on nearbye trees.

And, lastly, tonight, I was entertained by the TWINS  who are now huge and fast moving- hence no decent shots - as they fed in our back garden.

The cold weather forces wildlife to take risks by coming closer to us than they might usually do.

NOT A BAD OLD DAY.
