    This is Foxy.A very tame Fox who when he sees me bounds up just like a playful dog.
  8. Sorry Jethro, won't be a Nightingale. They are making their way across West Africa at the moment. Arrive in England late April / May. Fairly scarce in your part of the world. Maybe it could of been a Wren ? or Chaffinch? Blackcap get often mistaken for Nightingale, they also have a wonderful song !

  10. Daws Heath, Essex, Near Rayleigh. We Have 17cm of level snow ! My two childrens Birthdays today! Same day 3 years apart, My daughter is 13 today and my son 10 today. Magical having snow on their birthdays.
  11. The famous Naturalist Gilbert White, writes about the terrible winter of 1739-40. He mentions that of terrible frosts and cold N/E winds carried on through April and May, stopping Redwings and Feidfares departing for Scandinavia until early June! Are there anymore reports of that winter? What sort of weather patterns do you think occured that year ?
  12. Some pics taken the other day. Badgers didn't like the crunching snow much,always known soft snow in their short lives.
  13. Hi Dave, got a team driving up delivering furniture today from south Essex to Peterborough = PE19! What are the conditions like today? are they going to have fun ??
  14. Lots of Redwing last night while badgerwatching and Brent geese the other night calling while passing over my house. Wonderful sound to hear in the middle of the night when your in bed
  15. Got a wedding to go to at Hintlesham Hall on Friday (near Ipswich) Coming from south Essex near Paul.S. Is it looking like it will be more snowy for that area ? Pics in the gardens should look good,peoples faces might look a bit blue though !
  16. 2 male Bramblings feeding under the seedfeeder on and off all day!Must be waiting for the weather conditions to change before heading off to Scandinavia.
  17. Saw my first Swallow on 2nd April travelling north!! Wonder what it was thinking when it hit that cold northerly
  18. Went to Gibraltar once! They had a massive Hail Storm! All the locals were shouting! "Its Snowing,its Snowing!" How many more years until we get like that here
  19. Went Badger watching around the 1987 snowy period! It was a nightime magical winter wonderland The temp was -13. The Badger holes had columns of steam coming out of them,just like chimneys :o (called Huffing) Two hours later came back home Didn't see a single Badger! They were all snug underground
  20. Up to 49 bird species so far. the latest last week was a Firecrest! Have an ancient wood next-to my house and a farm behind. It all comes down to watching and feeding, with lots of wild birdfood to bring them in.
  21. Thanks Paul, always so helpful.
