A record of wildlife in my garden and various trips to the Warwickshire countryside and occasionally further afield.

"To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour."

Blue Tit Family Update
Six young blue tits are still thriving and growing well. Feathers are starting to appear on their wings and heads and parents are busy feeding with female only doing an occasional spell of brooding. Had to chase off great spotted woodpecker again today who was having another attempt at breaking through the metal plate.

Welcome to my blog. I have been interested in natural history from an early age and we have tried to create a garden attractive to wildlife. I also enjoy reading, photography, collecting fossils, visiting historic buildings and gardens and supporting Aston Villa. Please feel free to leave a comment and, if you would like to email me, my email address is ciraggedrobinsATgmail.com - remember to replace AT with @. Thank you for visiting.

Sounds as though you have a wonderful wildlife garden... Hopefully the metal plate will do its job and Woodie won't be successful.
Thanks Tricia. As far as I am aware there have been no further visits from Woodie although it will be a nerve wracking few weeks until they fledge.
