Hi youngbirdlover

 

[Wiktoria]

Im new here and just saying hello!

Hello! I hope you will enjoy posting here


And "hi!" to everyone because it has passed so much time since last time I wrote something in this thread.

Recently I encountered a Cuckoo which behaviour shocked me. Unlikely to every single bird of that species I'd seen it was quite tame. I could approach quite close to it and when I scared it away (unintentionally, of course, even before I started approaching to it) the Cuckoo came back to its fence just a few minutes later.

Even as common species as a Cuckoo can sometimes gives so much joy |8)|

Welcome to the thread Young Bird Lover and welcome back Storm Petrel. Nice pictures of the Cuckoo Wiktoria :t: As regards it behaviour it might have been a favourite perch due to good food nearby, or a decent place to sing from... or it might just have liiked sitting in the sun!

I've still got one to go, and then that's it. Finito. The summer should then pass in a delightful bird/cider fuelled haze, instead of the recent exam-related stress and hardship. The scary thing is that I have now officially got into Cambridge or not. EEEEEKK!!!! Better bloody have!

I'm also pencilled in for a few days in Blakeney soon so I should soon be able to show you Norfolk lot how it's done!!! 8-P

Hi everyone went to brockholes quarry to se the red backed shrike but no luck :-C:-C:-C but saw 1 skylark, 2 heron, 9 cormarant, 3 oystercatchers, l b b gulls, 30+ lapwing, alot of swift, swallows and 20+ house martins.

Lancashire vs. Norfolk: Smackdown!!!

In the blue corner, gruff northerners with cider-spattered Aldi bins bought through "t'wages of twenty-three bloody tough days down t'pit, wi' wages docked for upkeep o'terrace. It would 'a been an Opticron if that bloody son o' mine had picked up more fluff from under the looms and not spent so much bloody time swannin' off at that bloody school. Damn that bloody 1870 Forster's Education Act!".

In the red corner, refined southerners brandishing Kowas and Swaros earned via hedge funding, in their hides with all mod cons, cushioned seats and the like.

Bring it on!!! o
