Awake all night again, looked outside around eight this morning and everything was white over again, outside temp’ a chilly minus 5F….

Got my first proper gas and electricity bills for this place on saturday lunchtime…. not nice, gas is the worse one with it being gas central heating and water heating, I could do with a soak in the bath but now not sure I can afford the luxury, time to make some cutbacks I guess, no more treats, no more booze….. :cry:

Things are looking up with the birds, seems to be getting a lot busier recently with the continuing cold weather, taking a que from Daffy I’ve listed the ‘visitors’…..

Robins – x2
Great Tits – Numerous
Long Tailed Tits – x4+
Coal Tits – Numerous
Blue Tits – x4-6 usually
Green Finches – Numerous
Wrens – x2
Assorted Sparrows – Numerous
Dunnocks – X1 or 2…. Hard to tell as they hide so well !
Wood Pigeons – Numerous fat ones…. LOL
Collared Doves – x6+
Blackbirds – Numerous
Thrush – x1 so far, good for getting rid of snails!!
Starlings – Numerous…. noisy, greedy little buggers!
Crows – Were numerous until I stopped using ‘tray’ feeders

No doubt there’s some I’ve missed but thats the list of regular sightings!

Time to make a coffee and go chat to the lovely Dee on msn messenger…..

SeeYa…….

Trying out the camera again, three photo’s this time……

There used to be a couple of Robins around too but one was found dead out on the road a while back, lets hope some others arrive to take over the territory soon, they’re my all time favourite birds….
