Things seemed quiet in the garden today apart from noisy Blackbirds and Goldfinches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The header image is of two juvenile Woodpigeon in a tree today at the front of the house. I know I have seen Wood Pigeon flying into the tree over a few weeks, and seen them perched a the top of it, but I didn’t see a nest within the tree. I guess these two are waiting to be fed by returning parents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new species of the day is a Large White butterfly. If I am reading things right this is a female with the two spots on each fore wing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the hopeful one of the day is of this pair of Blackbirds. The black male was already feeding on the ground when the female landed. She fluttered her wings a bit after landing as if to say “Hi, this is me, your best mate.” Then they spent ages near each other feeding, throwing leaves and twigs about and pecking about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reason for saying “hopeful” is that my next-door neighbour was trimming the Ivy that spills of the back wall and I think there is a nest in the Ivy but just a bit further over from where he was trimming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the last day or so I have seen Blackbirds gathering nesting material (see Day 24<\/a>) which makes it a little surprising that Wood Pigeon already have young perched in a tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
