Sorry, i didn't want to disturb the area so i took the picture from the live vide through t.v!!!! Hence rubbish picture...... But 5 eggs!!!
Song thrush nesting in a garden in Thurstonland, West Yorkshire. She's right by the roadside but quite relaxed about it all. There are four little blue eggs in there.
A white egg, slightly smaller than the kind in the fridge, buried in a pot in the garden.
A vulpine larder? A snake? Something to do with dinosaurs?*
And most importantly, what to do with it?
(*clues: the garden is close to a pond and a river, and one of my trainers had a bite taken out of it last week)
Springwatch is an annual TV venture on the BBC here in UK where they visit an area of wildlife interest with livecams in nestboxes, video features of various wildlife projects, etc. It's very encouraging how much interest it generates.
This isn't regrettably our garden, but an area of the local country park.
Umm..... coal tits? No, maybe great tits? (sorry, I know, pathetic!)
Over the moon today! Spotted a first for me. My first swallows. I only managed to photograph one as the other 3 I counted wouldn't stay still for long enough! Also had a very close encounter with a large grass snake today. Unfortunately it was such a close encounter that it was too close for my lens! - Southwater
