Good to see you posting on it Jane. I wonder if Robins have been 'run ragged' by all the feeding of their babies?

I don't know Ann but have never seen them look like this before .Even some of the Blue Tits look 'rough' lol Like they have all been dragged through a hedge backwards' .The Robins definitely look the worst .

I have just got back from Somerset where I have at last seen a lesser spotted woodpecker. The cottage we stayed at had bird feeders and every day it visited. I have seen loads of Green woodpeckers in my time but not a single spotted.

I add my Robin is alive and well and visiting me as usual. He is so tame he feeds from my hand.

Bet he isn't scruffy like Jane's then. Lovely to see the woodpecker.

No mine is a very dapper gent :-D. I was surprised just how many different species I saw down there including a Sparrow Hawk, Peregrine and also a harrier.

This thread hasn't obviously been transferred yet but, in case anyone hasn't seen it, there is a bird thread on the new board with mention of a bird I certainly had not heard of called a Brewers Blackbird. Seen in Yorkshire.
