Wildlife in your Garden

Spot on. We regularly see a family of robins. Male....female and younger looking robins. They must be nesting nearby. They often come down close when we are in the garden. A lovely breed of bird.

They do get close.
Either that or they have appalling eyesight.

If you put food out for them mate, you can get them to come quite close and could get some decent pics.

I've young kids so I wasnt mad keen on doing that in case the fox felt cornered with them near.

I've a video of one of them (foxes not kids) playing with a tennis ball I must post up.

Had my wee squirrel pal in again today. Comes in the gaff to eat the cats food most days, he's getting braver. Was making toast and in he popped through the window I leave open for the cat. No one feck given. By the time I got my phone to take a picture the cat was on it though. So had to shut the window. He came right up to the window again face to face with the cat, like on the window sill, but I made an arse of the pictures. Reckon by the end of the summer I'll be able to hand feed him. Love squirrels

Quatermass and the Pit. BBC six parter quite good for when it was made

That's in black and white. I like those old shows from the 1960s. And also a four part Quatermass series from the late 1970s. Recently shown on that talking pictures channel. I like those old sci - fi shows......
