Potterne Lake part 2




I just wanted to have another picture of the fox and the swans as mentioned in the previous post.

There are black headed gulls in the bottom right which are yet to start developing their breeding plumage. I almost sound like an expert don't I!

Having filled the feeders in the garden I have seen plenty of birds enjoying the feast of options, great tit, long tailed tit, robin, blackbird, goldfinch, jackdaw, collared dove, wood pigeon, pied wagtail, sparrow, dunnock, starling, wren all visiting. However, a less welcome guest has appeared in the front garden, a young rat wich seems to be coming in from next door's garden through the hedge to feed on the spilled seed. I won't be putting any out for a while now to discourage it. In all honestly it is running along right where the cat usually sits all day!
