I'm so jealous of all these folk from other countries who have such interesting and exotic birds. I'd love a massive vulture sitting on our roof hee hee.

On the way out of the village this morning in the car, I 'pretend spat'. (A lone magpie was pecking at a sad pigeon carcass in front of us) My husband always smiles. He thinks white people are bonkers anyway, and this merely confirms it.

Great honking overhead this evening as eight large geese flew past. Couldn't make out what type, as they were silhouetted against the evening sun.
