Trainee Blue Tit
It’s not just yesterday’s young blackbirds that are getting the hang of getting their own food – the young Blue Tits are also making an appearance. This one was so intent on eating the blackfly, that he ended up hanging by his feet from the leaf! Not the most elegant of angles to eat from,…

A Tribe of Blackbirds
You might spot one young Blackbird in the garden, and very rarely two at the same time, but this morning we spotted three youngsters in the garden together! Judging by the amount of moss being thrown off the roof, we’re assuming that at least one of the adult Blackbirds was sitting on the roof, trying…

Radish Flowers
My radish experiment failed spectacularly – the only radish plant to grow, has flowered and has not produced a radish! I hadn’t expected the flowers to look quite so pretty though. The flowers didn’t last long before starting to fade, but it’s slightly made up for the lack of radishes from those seeds! #staywild

Definitely a day for cloudspotting

Morning Cloudscapes and Bird Feeding….

Blooming Poppies
You can find wild in the most unusual places – these poppies are growing wild along the pavement in the base of a wall. They really liven up a boring stretch of tarmac! #30dayswild

Unusual Clouds
The clouds were threatening rain all afternoon, and they weren’t really looking all that photogenic. However, as we were walking back home, we noticed this usual looking cloud on the hill in the distance; the white clouds stood out against the grey murky clouds behind. #30dayswild

Floral displays
We’re used to seeing the council’s hanging basket floral displays in the city centre, but in recent years there’s been a lot less of them. This year however, they’ve decided to use “eco-friendly” planters (these apparently retain the water, rather than letting it just drip through), which included a run of planters along the railings. It…
