Bills Backyard

December 16th, 2008 · 2 Comments · miscellaneous

Do you get to see much wildlife near you? We seem to have Bill Oddies back garden, 3 foxes, 5 squirrels, a pheasant, (which we worry for near Christmas), numerous birds…….Pigeons of varying shapes, sizes and colours, a Blackbird, a Robin, a Great Spotted Woodpecker, Blue, Grey and Long Tailed tits,  the obvious Starlings and even a couple of the now rare Sparrows.

Last night though we had an Owl, larger than life watching every move my husband made without moving anything but his head, curiously though he was not bothered at all by the dog, but then the dog was not looking up at him. I love it, i’m not a “twitcher” or someone thats at one with nature, but i like being able to look out over the garden and watch the number of visitors we receive.

What visits you? there must be some gardens in Kirby with some wonderous visitors.
