Superb Kits! Great to have a fox visit and be able to get a snap - I just see their pee marks on my toolstore! Haven't seen a single Painted Lady this year, quite a change to last year when they seemed to be everywhere.
Have got a bit of a scratched shin at the moment - one of the collared doves was walking up and down my leg as I sat on the back step, going from my boot to my knee and then slithering back down again. Just white skin marks though, not exactly as though I had a goshawk grabbing my leg! :-O
The Robin and Dunnock were out picking through the leaf litter earlier, the Robin paying very close attention to some old cuttings I'd moved and the Dunnock was hunting out suet pellets that the Blackbird and Sparrows had missed. The Sparrows were watching me from their usual shrub hideout as I sat on the back step, coming out to gather suet I threw to them but dashing back to cover at the slightest thing - very nervous little birds but with the Sparrowhawk activity this year it's not surprising, the Blackbird hides under that shrub with an eye to the sky as well!
