On the day before Christmas, my true love showed to me….

…1 flying heron..2 bright kingfishers3 Christmas robins4 mighty buzzards5 shy pied wagtails6 cheeky sparrows7 busy nuthatches8 chaffinches feeding9 active coal tits10 cheery redstarts11 hungry blue tits…..and 12 busy birds round our birdfeederHappy Christmas, everyone.

I chose these birds because, apart from the nuthatch, they can all be seen from the house.  In fact the heron cruises past down onto the river to feed once, maybe twice, every day.  We still get quite excited every time it happens.

But in most cases, not so very different from England, eh?
