    #23. Sparrowhawk - It's alive! The bigger cousin hadn't taken it in his lunch after all. (Or then this was other individual than last years Sprawk.) I think this was 3rd cy male with orange lower cheeks but no orange in breast at all, and lack white supercilium. But I'm not sure is it age-thing...

    Isn't it customary in France to have several mistresses? So there´s no need for an other wife... :unsure: (Speaking of mistresses... I think the Jos's Blue Tit is a result of Mrs. Blue Tits extramarital affair with the Crossbill.) Richard, I hope that your Pygmy hasn't already become a hawks...

    In Finland, birdbaths are only seen in a few gardens. I dug a water hole in the yard of my previous house (I think I even posted pictures of it on the forum at the time), but digging one in the yard of an apartment building here might cause resentment among the other residents. Here in Finland -...
