Seems the birds came late this year. On their way south they stop in to my yard to eat the berries of my mountain ash. I had to look up their arrival on a blog from a previous year and they are a bit late, but not by much - about a week and a half.
It never ceases to amaze me when they come. The huge flock blackens the sky as they swoop down on the trees, eat in a frenzy, then all swoop up and away in unison. A few minutes later, back they come...again and again and again. It's fascinating and I do enjoy watching them every year.

As soon as I opened your blog I just loved the pictures. You remind me to look at nature too albeit living in the city. I can just see you with a cup of tea enjoying the nature around you. I think of you often especially when I see glitter and kitch - MJT
