Have to say that our bird table is pretty amazing at the moment with lots of parents bringing their fledglings to dine- adorable.

I can relate... since with my camera, even the most impressive closeup I can manage leaves the subject just a blurry little dot. Though I did capture a halfway decent photo of an eagle in flight recently.<BR/><BR/>I like that birding site with the songs all ready to click. I discovered a wonderful bird here recently... the Bewick's Wren. How ironic, since I assume it must have been named after the artist, Bewick. Or maybe not. But it had the most amazing song. <BR/><BR/>I stood there like an idiot staring up into the trees, as people passed by. And every half minute it would gush forth with it's amazing song.<BR/><BR/>Nature... what would we do without it?John Nezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13428052549806632272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313028.post-33910288239476116392007-05-26T19:03:00.000+01:002007-05-26T19:03:00.000+01:00What a wondeful walk you had, and thank you for th...What a wondeful walk you had, and thank you for the link to the springwatch webcams - I had forgotten about those webcams.
