On Friday morning I took my camera and a Shipley Camera Club shirt along to Northcliffe Park Woods in Shipley. I gave Graham the shirt and then we went looking for Ring-necked Parakeets.
As usual you can tap/touch/click on an image, not its caption, to see it in better quality in the gallery. And if you like what you see please click on one or more of the Share buttons at the bottom.
Ring-necked Parakeets
In the past when I have noticed Ring-necked Parakeets they have been noisy and moved around in numbers. Today they were quiet and still. Spotting them against the green foliage was very, very, difficult.
No photos, but we spent a while listening to Great Spotted Woodpeckers. I did think that a squirrel we could see was getting the woodpeckers worried but we didn’t spot one. Squirrels will eat eggs and fledglings if they come across them so I assumed the adults were trying to entice the Squirrel away from a nest.
If you are using a phone the caption can take up most of the space of the thumbnail so you might find it easier to turn your phone to landscape to open the gallery. I am hoping to change that for the site.

It is often a best guess and it would take up too much room to say It could be this, or it could be… or perhaps.
