Linnet (The 'Dump', Naas Lane, Lydney)

It won't take it anymore, spring is here, and soon be leaves all over the trees. But, now we can enjoy the Linnets.

Swallows (Harbour Road, Lydney)

I went to our place where the Swallows seems to come first, and, there it was, lovely birds. It normally lands here before thinking of going somewhere else to have their chicks.

Goldfinch at the feeder.

House Sparrow (Harbour Road, Lydney)

I was told by the weather person, that we were going into a day with sunshine, so what did I do, put on swimming trunks and head out toward it.  In fact, we were covered with clouds. You can't trust the weather person.............

                                Here is the female of the species, collecting grass to make her nest.

Juvenile Black-headed Gull and Mallard Duckings.

I didn't go out before 12.00 o'clock because it was a bit drowsy, the weather that is. So, I went down to our lake. There wasn't any body, which made me glad, sorry people.
The Black-headed Gulls had gone to the seaside, lucky birds; and all they left were the juveniles, they don't know what its for.

 Then, along came Miss Mallard Duck with her brood tagging each other. This one is my first in 2011.
