Bird song

Lovely blossom picture...

I enjoy hearing little garden birds singing :o)

thats very good to know, i shall look that up, thanks sheila, i wish i knew more of the bird calls.

Thanks Terra and Sticki. Just realised I also know the pheasant, because he's always popping in, lol!

Blackbirds have a very specific call when they are being territorial and defending their patch of the garden !

well worth listening to, thanks again sheila

Beautiful yummy blossom Sheila, its funny but I had a gift for christmas of an RSPB book of birds with a CD. of 100 bird songs & calls attached, I have yet to listen, but maybe now I will.

I too enjoy watching and listening to birds and I can recognize a few Sheila. A good number visit my garden but I haven't being outside for months as my garden is infested with foxes and squirrels. Apart from digging, there are so many fox droppings that I cannot walk without stepping on any of them. Any remedy? I bought a trap but I did not use it, as I am not sure if it is lawful to catch a fox and what to do with it.

lovely blossom, yes I enjoy listening to the birds sing aslo

Oh dear Costas . . . the only thing I know of that foxes don't like is a dog!

Thank you Yorks!

I also love to listen to the birds but wouldn`t recognize a lot, so thankyou Sheila, lovely photograph of the blossom...
