This thread is a bit like one of those cave-roosting bats wintering in northern US- weeks of torpidity and then just a little pump of blood into the vital organs keep it alive
had a great afternoon yesterday- about an hour ambling around Andrew Haslen's gallery (I guess there will be some fans of his in the forum), exhibitions by David Bennet downstairs and Robert Greenhalf upstairs, and pretty much every book ever published or illustrated by Ennion on the shelf to browse through, even the history and archaeology books
then got home and noticed a Buzzard sneaking into roost at the end of the garden last thing, still there today AM when chased out by two crows as per attched image, done at high speed but using real paint..
also the Nodshank has had another outing- birds added at Nodmeister's command to create more of a just-leaving-the-roost atmosphere
