Birds

Chickens seem perfectly happy after finishing off the Chinese meal. Obviously do not have highly bred and delicate constitutions like Myself.

TB came out to see the crow with me and took an instant dislike to it. Raised its hackles and snarled terrifyingly. Crow exited hurriedly. (Had no idea TB could act so mean. And the crow is almost as big as it is.)

Another brood of baby blackbirds has hit the ground running - Well almost. The nest is in the highly prickly juniper bush by the pond and all 3 of them fell into the water on their maiden flight. He raced into the garden (Moved faster than He has in years) and scooped them out with the fish net and put them on the garden table with a few meal worms for company. (Taste very nasty but birds don't seem to have much sense of what's good.) Then She shut me in the conservatory for the afternoon which was rather unfair.
