    Lesson for Saturday: it pays to study a picture. I didn't know the House Sparrow was there until I looked closely at the picture.... just saw all the Starlings LOL. A beautiful sunny day, so I'm off to Kinnordy. See you later.

    Hacked

    I was rather sad to see my neighbour hacking away at his beech hedge (scary to watch too, as he perched himself astride the steep shed roof, then standing on a ladder.... all with no safety equipment at all!!!) However, the net result was a lot more light in my sitting room and the garden too...

    Back in September, before the beech leaves had changed colour to their autumnal brown..... looks nice, doesn't it LOL. I spotted these two sitting close together in the hedge, thought they looked rather cute. This was before the hedge got hacked, leaving a lot of ugly bare wood. Hopefully the...

    Jumped ahead to show you this one, think I'd run out of suitable Norwegian ones LOL. (though there's still time for a surprise maybe). This from my first folder after I got home. The House Sparrows don't come to the window feeder so often as the tits, but that fat feeder has been quite a...

    I can't believe it...

    I've got to the very last full day of my wonderful holiday with Ann. That morning she had some work to do at the University, so we got there in time for her to show me around and where to get coffee and then left me in her office. The trees outside her window sometimes play host to...

    No!! You can count them....

    .... I gave up! Thought I had done well, counting about a dozen House Sparrows in my garden.... once!! They really do seem to do very well in Norway, especially so in the towns. TTTW

    He can't decide....

    ... whether to eat or dust bathe LOL I couldn't resist taking pictures of these sparrows messing in the dust, but as I looked at this one to present to you here, it looks more like he's having a good chew on some seeds.

    Dusty bath

    There was a bank below the seating platform and I suddenly noticed some movements there. Some House Sparrows had dropped in to have a dust bath, this is a youngster, still holds the remains of the yellow gape.

    I quite fancied joining her.... the temperature was in the upper 20's if not into the 30's!!! And I thought Norway was a cool country LOL We'd left the cemetery and were heading for another, that on accessed through this little park. The pond was quite attractive and a draw for a number of birds.

    Guy in the long stuff

    Just yards from where I took my last picture I noticed a lot of movement in the tree beside the path. Hung around then out popped this male. He sat so nicely on the fence for me.
